Note that even if you had a backwards compatible PS3, Swap Magic got blocked after a FW, so in 4.11 it won't work either way.

It definately will not play ps2 games. It is like a cechL01 basically. Which was made way after the cechE01 a.k.a. The last made backwards compatible unit.

SwapMagic was never blocked afaik, at least not on full HW BC. I could boot it on my 3.55 BC PS3.

The closest you can get is the cobra dongle's weak ps2 support after downgrading using a flasher after support higher firmware flashing is available. your best bet is to sell that ps3 and buy a phat one on ebay or a similar site.

afaik, it wasn´t blocked on the partial BC models either. I know it was working at least up to 3.72.

@OP
the easiest way to know if your ps3 is PS2 BC is to check the usb ports.
4 usb ports = ps2 BC

you can´t use burnt discs unless you open up your ps3 to do a disc swap with an original

edit.
I just read that your model # is confirmed as not being a ps2 BC ps3. so ya, your out of luck.
I wouldn´t bother with Cobra because it´s compatibilty is very limited
