ok seems the problem was almost definitely HD related (at least partially). I took the HD that we removed from the PC earlier and put it into my PS2, tried installing a game and it took about 15 minutes to reach 9% completion (and this was a very small game). I put my normal PS2 HD back in and the same game took a matter of seconds to reach 9% complete, and only a few minutes to install the whole thing. Also after having this HD in the PS2, I suddenly realised how noisy the damn thing is, I hadn't noticed it before because it was mixed in with the sound of the PC's cooling fans.
I think it is safe to say it's fucked, and I'm gonna return it to Maxtor if I can. We didn't check the HD before because this is actually a new HD as it is, which we installed only a few months back. Doesn't help when your replacement parts turn out to be faulty also
