The other day, I was reading the news section of tehskeen.com and came across an article on a company planning to offer a kit to add HDLoader (hard disk loading) capability to slim PS2. Apparently the kit includes a mod chip and a HD interface chip. Supposedly it's being offered for $50 US.
Here's a link to a discussion on another forum.

Re: HDLoader for PS2 Slims
I noticed this on modchip.ca a while back and I assume its what you mean.

A little pricey, but I guess you save money on the network adapter.

Re: HDLoader for PS2 Slims
I don't think that's it. It appears that the thread over at psx-scene.com is not there anymore for some reason. Here's the announcement at tehskeen.com http://www.tehskeen.com/modules/News/showarticle.php?threadid=14869 At that page, there's a link to the Indonesian site that is working on this.

Re: HDLoader for PS2 Slims
On second thought, perhaps you're correct? I took a closer look at the Indonesian website and some of the photos appear identical to those of the one you referenced. We'll have to wait and see what happens.

Re: HDLoader for PS2 Slims
That definitely looks like HD COMBO to me. Take a look at the similarities between the installation pics on the hdcombo site and that indonesian site.
I know Mozgus had one of those as you can see here and he would be all over this thread. I did search psx-scene just to be sure but found no mention of this HD-PRO, the closest thing I found was this.
