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 EE-RAM (128mb)
  • 4 times more IOP-RAM (8mb)
  • Flashable chip instead of the usual boot ROM

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).

DTL-T15000

Development tool with performance analyzer.

Unlike the other variants of TOOL, this one is dark-blue rather than black.
