How do I know that I\'m getting the latest version of the console? Would any new ps2 at wal-mart be of the 30001R version?

ALL new PS2s are SCPH-30001R

the have the updated DVD driver [2.10] so that you dont need to install the driver from the cd that comes with the DVD remote onto a memory card

30001R is not the latest version. I did a thread about this. 30001R is simply the MODEL NUMBER.

Theres two 30001R consoles, version 4 and version 5 (newest).

You need to take the expasion bay off at the back...

If the cover has metal rim and theres no screw its V4.
If the cover is plastic and theres a screw its V5.
