I've been thinking and wanted to know from experts or someone with experience in modding a ps can I take the laser assembly from my psone 101 [motherboard sorta smelted in house fire] and put it in my ps 70001?

PSone laser in PStwo nope you can't do that, for one the Psone laser is CD only
all PSX/PSone laser units are interchangable though (the PSone ribbbon is shorter but feeding it an alt way and it fits)
PS2 slim models use the same laser unit but the bulky one is different but all bulky PS2's use the same unit as other bulky models
It would be less pain staken to just buy a PS2
If you just put too many 0's in there then yes the drive unit should work in the both PSX models
PS2 70001 PSX 7001 PSone to PSX is harder because of the ribbon (but feed it through the laser case a lil differently and it will fit) PSX to PSone is as easy as it gets, remove the ribbon from the main board and hook it to the new one
Be carefull with the ribbon clip though they break easy (PSX/PSone ribbon clips are not as bad as the PS2 ones though for breaking)

When I said 70001 I ment the psx 7001 not the ps2 70001. Thanks with that it will save me a week looking for a new console or web searching for a laser.

still too many 0's it's a 7001 not a 70001 but that is nit picking, I don't care as long as I know what you are talking about and yeah it's very doable
PSone 101 to PSX 7001 is hardish though just because the ribbon is a lil short on the PSone laser unit (but it can be put through the light gray plastic case of the laser unit a different way and it should fit tight on the olde PSX 7001 series)
