To disassemble the PlayStation 2, you'll start on the bottom. There are six case screws that you must remove. One's under the sticker that says removing it voids your warranty. Unlike the Nintendo Wii or PlayStation 3, the PlayStation 2 has no security screws.
With the six case screws removed, you can gently lift off the PlayStation 2's top cover. Unlike the Xbox 360, Wii, or PlayStation 3, the PlayStation 2 lacks a self-contained optical drive. Removing the case's top half exposes the optical drive's laser and drive mechanism. Be careful not to damage these components during dissection and reassembly.
