PS3 2100 or 2500 Slim?

[SquiglyDiggly]

I know on a recent thread of mine there was talk about this that just started but I'm trying to figure out how much trouble can a dead Blu-Ray drive on a 2100 cause? Can't all the trouble when it dies be removed or avoided with NoBd cfw? Or is it just worth getting a 0C 2500 instead and still get cfw just at a higher price and if there is any other differences or concerns I should know about

I prefer the 2100 as they can all take CFW the 2500 can be tricky. But yes as long as you don't care about the BD a no-BD CFW will make it functional

2100 can all take cfw but i prefer the jailbreakable 2500...

2100 parts are kinda hard to get.. i'd either do 2000 or 2500..

surely.
2500 has simpler structure than 2100, it somewhat easier to disassemble and repair.
If you want new one, I recommend the 2500 if can get JBable model, .
Also, the hardware specs such as power consumption of both are almost same.

Of course, if you don't need a BD drive, I think NoBD cfw is fine choice.
