Editing PlayStation 2 Tool

The development tool is basically a custom PlayStation 2 in symbiosis with a PC running Redhat Linux.

== Hardware differences ==
The major differences between the PS2-part of TOOL and retail PS2 hardware are:
* '''4''' times more [[Rambus DRAM|EE-RAM]] (128mb)
* '''4''' times more IOP-RAM (8mb)
* Flashable chip instead of the usual boot ROM
* Dedicated interface for comunication between the TOOL PC and the PS2, usally handled with the DSNET toolset. known as '''PIF'''. [https://github.com/ps2dbg/rdb#retail-debugging-startup-card-readme-file--20170610 PIF diagram]
* Some models have a different HDD interface. known as '''AIF'''. [https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aps2dev%2Fps2sdk%20DEV9_ENABLE_AIF&type=code dev9 driver with AIF support]

== Models ==

=== DTL-T10000 ===
The first model of the development tool.

=== DTL-T10000H ===
Very similar to the first model, but with some fixes related to DEV9 that allow the usage of the PS2 HDD (DTL-H20400).<br/>
