| 1165452 | 2010-12-29 09:57:00 | forums.afterdawn.com I'd say 2Tb would be overkill. But it depends what you're using your ps3 for... |

| 1165453 | 2010-12-29 10:11:00 | forums.afterdawn.com I'd say 2Tb would be overkill. But it depends what you're using your ps3 for... Can you even get 2TB 2.5" drives? I think the limit would be 2TB anyway because the drive must be formatted as FAT32 and FAT32 only goes up to 2TB? Correct? Anyway, seems like there's no limit on the ps3 as such. As long as the drive is 2.5" SATA formatted as FAT32 it should work fine. Actually, seems like the only way to fit a a 12.5mm drive into the ps3 is the leave the caddy in the ps3 off. Might just get a 750GB which is 9.5mm high. |

Don't think so, but if they existed it would be overkill. |
