Every PS2 stores a model-specific, uint16_t-sized console identification number on EEPROM.
Every PS2 stores on EEPROM a unique console identification number. (uint16_t sized)


The exact address inside EEPROM depends on the [[MechaCon]]. If MechaCon's major version number is lower than 4 (i.e. on SPC970-based MechaCons), the value is located at '''0xE4'''. Else (i.e. on ARM-based MechaCons), it will be found at '''0xF8'''.<br/>
it can exist on two different locations inside EEPROM depending on the mechacon verison.
Note: this is not the byte offset, but the word-offset (1 word equals 2 Bytes) one would pass to the MechaCon SCMD '''0x0A''' to obtain EEPROM data.''<br/>


Following is a list of the known/suspected IDs and their respective models:
