    I just added a SATA drive to my ps2 yesterday, and it plays ps2 games fine but I really want to play psx games. Is there a solution for this yet?

      You can use POPStarter to use the built-in software emulator, but it’s not great. There’s also FreeMCBoot and MechaPwn if burning discs isn’t a problem (might only work on some models? I’m not sure)
