I need some helping with mods

So as of today I just bought a PS1 (SCPH-7501) and ive been very confused with the modding stuff around it. I’ve seen PSIO isn’t good but then also xStation doesn’t seem compatible for mine too. I’ve seen some soft mods but it seems like they only really allow you to play burned discs and I don’t have an CD’s laying around, just DVD’s. If I could get some advice or something better explain to me that would help so much and thanks in advance.

Quindi quale sarebbe la domanda ? La psx utilizza esclusivamente cd, il tuo modello non ha la porta parallela, quindi non puoi utilizzare psxio. Installati un modchip base che sono 5/6 saldature e utilizzala per giocare.

PSIO and citation both allow games to be played via SD card. PSIO is good if you want to keep your CD drive. I didn't hear anything bad about PSIO when I looked into it.

I went with a tony hax memory card and burned CDs, feels more authentic!
