Oh i see . sata rite ? .

ohh..lupe..yes mesti SATA

Wanna use 1TB also can... but ugly lah, have to put outside... cos won't fit.

seagate and western digital SATA 2.5" hdd 5400rpm

Get WD or Samsung or Seagate.

My original harddisk is Toshiba but i'm using Western Digital.

Make sure it's SATA and 5400rpm.

Good luck shopping for new hdd..

sure ah? jus bought a 1TB HDD. didnt know there's a physical size differences/limitation...

let say if i have 5 profile and each have the psn games downloaded . how to backup all the games ? . because i pecah2 kan the profile for different account .. need to download back the games ?

donno about the current batch but the old 1TB is thicker than normal hdd...if not mistaken normal is 9mm while the 1TB is 12mm

there is hope

WD ships industry's first 2.5-inch 1TB hard drive

why post old article

that one can't fit into ps3

2.5" wat why kenot fit

sjn hassan posted above ur post abt thickness of hdd...

yeah but i thought this would fit

its ok... just keep lookout on 1tb hdd (9mm thickness)

i think i have read some where that 12.5mm cannot be fit into PS3..so most of them who are using 1TB put their HDD outside the case......but 1TB already release 1-2 years a go..perhaps they already reduce the thickness to standard 9.5mm

guys...jus to advice ....dont ever use WD scorpio with your ps3...it has some incompatibility issues and will fk up ur ps3...damn slow to read gamesaves and to install stuffs!
