Oh thanks for that info so does that mean i can purchase any external hard drive any size? Yeah I know its easy but i get nervous to swap out the internal 40gb, I mean I fix old PS2 models that don't work any more but see they are already broken to begin with I have nothing to worry about(lol) but this is my PS3 we are talking about here, i just get nervous.....sorry off subject. So any one have any problems with external hard drives with the ps3. Take it easy everyone thanks for your time and help.
