Hi everyone, I need to extract my PS2 memory card saves, I have a slim PS2 whose model number is SCPH-70004 and a fat PS2 whose number is SCPH-30004.
They're not modded and I have neither swap magic disc nor FMCB card. Is it possible to do it ?
If not, can I find swap magic for free and put it in a disc ?
I always find videos that explain how to mod the ps2 and all, but I ONLY want to backup my memory cards.

"Modding the ps2" goes hand in hand with that.
You need a way to run homebrew on your console, and an FMCB card is the way to do it.
Ebay one!

You're right. It's possible to create an FMCB card that will only work on the correct region of PS2.
So it's indeed best to buy an FMCB card from the same country. PAL is basically all of Europe and Australia.
Generally, all PS2 consoles except the very last revision are FMCB compatible.
Probably 90% of them.
And the FMCB card can be created multi regional, which is what I would do if I sold them on Ebay.

And if you worry about modifying your console, don't.
If you take out the memory card, the console is 100% back to stock.
