After 10 years of successful operation, the Belle experiment at KEK (Tsukuba, Japan) will be completed in 2010. Thereafter, a major upgrade of the KEK-B machine is foreseen until 2014, aiming at a final luminosity of 8 Γ 10 35 cm Γ 2 s Γ 1 , which is about 40 times higher than the present peak value

We present the status of the second version of the Silicon Vertex Detector (SVD2) at Belle. SVD2 has been in operation since October 2003, and its innermost layer has accumulated 2.4 kGy of radiation dose. The noise in the inner layers increased by about 20%, while the gain of the readout chips kept
