QUOTE(miss mandy @ Aug 1 2008, 02:31 PM) Hi, r u a girl gamer? OK let me explain, HDD for PS3 is important because: 1) Some games need installation like the PCs do. 2) To store downloadable games from PSN. 3) To store downloadable demos from PSN. 4) To store videos (prefered HD videos/movies). 5) To store music (mp3s). 6) To store photos. 7) To store save files (no need memory card) 8) ... many other things This post has been edited by neoardi: Aug 1 2008, 02:50 PM |

QUOTE(obee @ Aug 19 2008, 10:16 AM) just upgraded to 160g (from 40g). Seagate, 5400rpm. everything is fine so far. backed up everything into my ipod You're in luck mate, i had the same problem before and this method works flawlessly: offtopic - i'm having problem detecting my 40g ps3 hdd after fitting into a casing. is there anything i must do before it is shown as a usable hdd in windows? For Windows 2000 and XP: Right click on My Computer. Choose Manage (This will open the Computer Management window). Go to the Storage category and select Disk Management Right click the new drive (usually listed as Hard Disk 1) and "initialize" You now have the option to partition and format the drive. The default settings of Primary Partition and NTFS- Quick Format are recommended for most users. But can use Fat32 to use it with PS3 Please tell me the result...cheers This post has been edited by neoardi: Aug 19 2008, 11:02 AM |

QUOTE(snipersnake @ Aug 19 2008, 11:58 PM) I bought a casing but my olf 40 gb is not even in the Disk Management. I also had some problem with the stock PS3's hdd and cannot solve it until now:I tried the hdd with ps3..no problem. I tried the casing with other hdd, no problem.. I tried other casing with my hdd, it cannot read..doesnt even appear in the usb device list...but its working flawlessly in ps3.. entahlah..until now the 40gb doing nothing.. --My PS3's stock 60gb hdd put into an external casing (brand CLIPtec)>>can use with windows but undetectable by my PS3 --after searching around the interweb, i can conclude that my hdd casing "maybe" unrecognizable by the PS3 --at least the hdd can be use with windows for backup purpose...

QUOTE(aphrael @ Aug 20 2008, 01:06 AM) I thought my external HDD didnt work with my ps3 but it turns out there wasn't enough power. Needed to plug it into both USB ports to work I also tot of that but after connected both USB port also cannot use... QUOTE(Rezuan78 @ Aug 20 2008, 04:52 AM) u can install MGS4 and GT5P in the 320gb HDD? is this possible ka? If u bought GT5P from PSN, then u can play it direct from the hdd, but MGS4 still need the disc to play it. and one more question, after u install MGS4 and GT5P in the HDD is the games become playable in ur ps3? BTW, PS3 will "reserve" 12% of your hdd space without any specific reasons... |
