Risky in that yer screwed if you break something, but good if you are impatient like me.

Nothing more to add, other than I did this exact same thing with my PS2 a few months ago and it's worked a treat since.
Oh, yes. Be careful when taking the top off as there is a ribbon connecting the power and eject buttons to the main circuit board which could easily break off.
