  • so you have the same bulk as me and less storage.... good for you

    also..

    my external HDD does hold games these days in fact i don't even need a disk drive. google ps3 CFW or just look at the last vid i posted

  • @mrfastreaction 4 years ago? everyone cared. now doing this is common knowledge thanks in part to me... your welcome

  • all you have done is Connect a 2TB hard drive in a USB port.... anyone can do that.

    you havent got a 2TB hard drive.... u have a 2TB External Drive attached to it.

  • Swapping not shaping

  • You have to install the firmware after you put the drive in thought a usbcheck out the vids on shaping one out in a slim

  • 172 dislikes, must own 360 which doesn't allow much data space haha

  • @ButterMeMilkiWay tha'd be my guess

  • I seen you told someone the firmwares not on the had well pretty site it depends on which one the slims have the OS on the hdd not the motherboard

  • @AKstryker23 that makes no sense, if what your saying were true then you wouldn't be able to upgrade the drive without first load the os onto it

  • Have you ever heard of turning a light on?

  • @TheSnatchWagon nope

  • @TheSnatchWagon Who plays Video Games while having lights on? Not me when i'm watching a movie or playing Games i always have the lights off.

  • I don't know about first but I have a ps3 slim with a 1tb internal memory disc

  • I'm guessing fat32, I don't know though and on fat32 formatted portable hard drives, can u install game data to that instead of the actual ps3? Straight from the disk I mean, not downloading some torrent or anything

  • if it is a external than its no problem

  • @ICEMANZIDANE ya not anymore

  • Ur scary

  • what do you need that muchn space for? thats over kill. 400-500gb is good enough depending on how much space you use.

  • i thought this was gonna be about 2tb internal drive.

  • Sweet, not even the biggest or baddest of games could bring that drive down.

  • haha curl up with halo lol thax for the awsome video how much did the hard drive cost you and have you considered upgrading your rpm i want to buy a new hard drive and was curious can someone please respond thank you!!!! <3

  • Comment removed

  • I NEED 2TB of memory....movies and music...I'm a girl so no game saves....

  • if i have 3.66 on my ps3 and buy a new internal hdd can i install 3.55?

  • @1101clubamerica no the firmware is not stored on the HDD

  • @1101clubamerica after you upgrade with a new HDD u need to do all the system updates it was stated by sony

  • @1101clubamerica If you have a slim, you probably can since the internal flash memory is lower than the fat's therefore the HDD stores the OS or most of it at least.

  • @digidude1994 acctually i tried it and i can't :( but thanks for your reply.

  • @1101clubamerica They probably made the system record what OS was on it or something like that to prevent that.

  • Damn I've had my ps3 for a hell of a long time and I've only used 10-20 gb!

  • @Aws0medude17 most ppl use it for tons of video and music as well as games

  • @Aws0medude17

    u dont have a lot of games then >_> ive used 40gb on games saves alone

  • 140 people have an xbox 360

  • of course gta4 takes up like half of that :P

  • Dude looks like David Spade

  • I have a Western Digital 500GB Hard Drive and it honestly is more than enough for me. I honestly don't need 2000GB of space!

  • @1supergogeta 2048 GB

  • @1supergogeta 2000 GB

  • how many gb is 2 terabyte

  • @1supergogeta It's about 2000 Gigabytes!

  • i have a 1229 GB:s PS3 !!!

  • GOW does not take up 35gb of space. what u smoking?

  • Its an external hard drive ... "-_-

  • @FlyingDuck97 thank you captain obvious

  • @Bonznumber1 Lmao

  • How do you format? Do you format it on the ps3 or what?

  • @AxAznGuyTony26 there is a link to the tutorial at the end of the vid

  • yeah, thats just a USB hdd.. use HDXT and get an enclosure for a 3.5" two terabyte with an esata port to use it as an 'internal' drive. anyone can format a drive to fat32 and plug it in the usb.

  • and there are plenty of games that require only mb's of hdd space. exactly which game requires 40gb of hdd space? just wondering cuz thats unheard of to me

  • hey what is the game that has large GB??? i just asking cause i want to buy a 120 or 160 ps3 slim and how many gb is the lowest game>??

  • @brianesquinas games range in size from about 5gb to around 40gb

  • @Bonznumber1 O.O man! if i want a God of War how many GB is it??

  • @brianesquinas 35gb

  • @Bonznumber1 ok im gonna buy a 500 gb Ps3 (or 1 tb if i can buy it)

  • 2tb would be great cause i like backing up my games but each games like 10gb+

  • @FunAndJokes more like 5-30 GB each

  • haahah lol wtf u gonna do with 2 tb DAMN all i need is 500 gb but its fucking awesome my usb harddrive is 1tb on my ps3

  • @Statizzz you may not need it but i do =)

  • @Statizzz Because you can now install custom firmware on the PS3 which allows for loading bootlegged games off the HDD.

    And most PS3 games are at least 7 GB each. The PS3 exclusives are at least 14 GB.

  • @DracoAzule i downloaded gow 3 fk 40 GB and the other games that ive'downloaded were around 10 gb

  • @Statizzz That'd take a week on my connection. I'll just rent the damn game lol

  • @DracoAzule wow i know right i tried 2 copy the game 2 my hdd becuz my cousin has the games and it was 24h busy copying the damn game

  • @Statizzz get a better connection

  • @Bonznumber1 if i doenload a game its around 2mb/s but it wuz copying the game gow from a original disk to my hdd and that was around 23.30 hr

  • @Statizzz copying the game from your disk to your hard drive was 23 hours?!?! wow it takes way less than that for me to copy a huge game like MGS4 that takes like 1/2 hour if it takes longer than that something is wrong... step one use the program multiman on your ps3... if what your saying is true a large game like mgs4 would be transferring at 0.3mb/s... if that is true then there is something very wrong with your system... cause even usb 1.1 transfers at around 2mb/s!

  • @Bonznumber1 the problem was that my hhd was full so but now it takes about 2 hr ( first i did it with multiman but now it did it with gaia manager ) alot faster for me

  • @Statizzz that sounds better... glad it works better now man

  • Also you can install a 2 TB drive on a 360. It's just even harder to do because you have to open the console up and jtag a patched kernel first.

    The problems with that is for one thing it's hard as SHIT to do and the only motherboards that work with it are the early revisions that were even worse about red ringing.

    I'm getting my PS3 tomorrow, and I got a 500 GB drive I bought for 50 bucks that I'm gonna install. It was a portable external drive but I disassembled it. Posted a vid of it too

  • @DracoAzule i thought that micro$oft made it so you can't use any drive larger than they have already created and built it into the firmware...

  • @Bonznumber1 They did. Which is why if you wanna get it to accept any other hard drive you have to install a jtag patched kernel. It pretty much does for the 360 what CFW does for the ps3, except it's way more complicated than just installing a patched update file. Just take apart the hard drive enclosure and put in another laptop hard drive.

    Only problem is if you put in a really big drive, it takes the Xbox 360 longer to boot up. But

  • Oh lol and I was just at GameStop trading in an old Xbox 360 controller for store credit (since I won't be needing it anymore) and this guy calls the clerk about something about his PS3 and the clerk goes "2 TB? Dude they don't even make 2 TB PS3." But I explained it to him and he's like "Whatever." lol

  • Everyone ain't a dumb-ass all you have to do is format the drive to fat32 and your ps3 will recognize it :)))

  • @BDOG471 ya that's common knowledge now but almost 3 years ago when i made this vid no one knew that. that's why mine is the oldest vid like this the only one older only worked in Linux

  • What a pointless video...???

  • @Obamamyhomeboy  ummm ya that is what this is!

  • @Bonznumber1 did u jailbrake ur ps3 ?

  • @ultimateronaldopro it was jailbroken b4 but now it has CFW

  • @Bonznumber1 yh same wat cfw u on?

  • @ultimateronaldopro Oh i run kmeaw it is the best of the 5 by far

  • hey so i just bought a Goflex Desk seagate 2tb external hard drive and im wondering if this will work for ps3 before opening. If this does, how can i format to fat32?

  • @kevkevTT click the link at the end of the vid

  • Thats external. not internal

  • @iamenjoi no one ever said it was an internal

  • @Bonznumber1 Yes by saying "2 terabyte PS3" That indicates it is internal. Just a suggestion: Change the Title.

  • @iamenjoi go complain to the guy that said he had the worlds first 1tb ps3 4 years ago... no one flames him cause it is external and on linux... this was a responce to that... the name is correct just not verry descriptive

  • @Bonznumber1 So you're purposely using a misleading title to gain views? For shame.

  • @iamenjoi no i'm using that title to make a point to the guy with the worlds first 1tb ps3 the only reason mine doesn't say worlds first is cause I was not 100% sure that it was the worlds first

  • @Bonznumber1 Its not even in the top 100. your playstation is not a 2 terabyte playstation. you have an external drive.

  • @iamenjoi hey go troll somewhere else k?

  • @Bonznumber1 Hey, just saying. This video was a waste of time. 

  • @iamenjoi well then go away

  • Ok, I've follow your tutorial, but It isn't what I have in mind since I already know how to get a big FAT32 format, but I want to know if you have loaded your external hard drive with games and how do you did it?

    I know there's a PS3 Hard Disk Drive Extender that can use regular 3.5" drives but the PS3 ain't working with 2TB hard drives only in 1TB.

  • @ndboy109 like what do you fit on your 40gb hd? movies are around 700mb and game installs tend to start at around 1gb so like 20games and 30movies and it is full

  • @PlayingaVideoGame i have a 4tb encloser now =) i ran out of space on my 2tb

  • What works better for games, internal drive or external?

  • @DerekTheDevil38

    they both work the same for games

  • @VongolaXEspada no they don't the transfer speed on usb 2.0 is limited.. some games hang but most are fine

  • @DerekTheDevil38 internal but you got to get them there some how and the external is WAY faster

  • External drives are extremely stupid unless you want to back up data to INSTALL A NEW INTERNAL HARD DRIVE

  • i got a 320 gb slim

  • Does Seagate Momentus 5400.6 500GB SATA 2.5" (8MB Cache / 5400RPM) ST9500325AS Work on ps3?

  • Does Samsung EcoGreen F4 2TB (5400RPM / 32MB Cache / SATA II) Work on ps3?

  • i actually would find a 2tb ps3 usefull for all the movies i download

  • @kamilrulez that's the kind of comment i like to see thanks man

  • @kamilrulez what movies you mean all the porn that you download?

  • that amount of space is pointless in a ps3.You cant install any games or demos on to it.all you can use it for is movies music and photos.As if anyone is gonna have over 2tb of music photos and movies anyway and even if they have most people would just stream them over the network from their main pc.So having a 2tb ps3 is nothing to brag about.

  • @xboxmodder02 you should really read some of the posts b4 you say that

  • @xboxmodder02 LOL. Yeah, you really have no idea. Perhaps get out of the XBOX scene and into the PS3 scene momentarily and you'll then probably realize why *SOME* people need that much space. If anything, 2TB is almost not enough.

  • @xboxmodder02 he can brag becuz 2 tb is like having clean ass rims....get the hoes lol

  • @xboxmodder02 A comment like this is what i would expect a year ago…but lets just say I got plenty of games on an external hard drive for ps3 and they do play….

  • @DvdXploitr ... ppl can be dumb sometimes =) 

  • Cool. I've got 8TB on my PS3 (2TB on each port).

  • hiall my ps3 just sat there for about a year i never really played it as games to expesive but that all changed with psgroove mod and 500gb int drive and x2 1tb drives uptil now i have 179 games installed on my drives with the cold night comming its great.

    oh does anyone know they used to do a ps3 fat base where you can plug cable into ps3 sata port and the base holds x1 3.5 drive some years back i saw it looking for one now

  • @rdt1970 standard sata cable extenders are all that is used one for the power and one for transfer. you can get both from any computer store

  • WHAT KIND OF HARD DRIVE IS IT?

  • @azinsanekiller western digital 

  • thiers no reason to ever get a 2 terabyte on a ps3 none at all, I have a 500gb and have 34 games and still have 350gbs left so you go add that up, I can 34 new games right now install them and still have lots and lots of space left again I can go and get 34 new games again, so remember I allready have 68 games now install them and still have lots and lots and lots of space left you go add that up 500gbs and 102 games and not to say you can still gets lots of games after that. 500gb all u need

  • @leabooty wow shitty games do the math 34 games taking up 150gb that us 4.4 gb... heavy rrain is 18gb super streetfighter is 13 gb heck even motorstorm is 12gb but i filled this drive with movies i have around 500 at 3.5gb each and then a few games... so there is no reason for you but there are allot of ppl who disagree with you

  • @Bonznumber1 yeah i have all games above you have up heavy rain etc... but thanks, oh one more thing dont go make this a big deal cause i wasnt trying to get at that at all trying to prove people wrong, but iam happy with my 500gb and i looked its 290 left of free space thats includes rdr, just cause 2, gow3, both street fighters, mafia 2, gta4, dead space etc.. but i all so dont get every game ether

  • @leabooty i was just doing the math like you said and next time don't say there is no reason to get something this big cause i just proved that there is, instead say YOU have no reason to get it. i like convos like this cause it shows both sides of the argument. =) youtube arguments are all in good fun anyway

  • @leabooty thats right you the man lol

  • @leabooty LOLOLOL! I have 8TB (8,000GB) hooked up to my PS3 right now and it's almost full. My Computer has 2 NAS drive with 4 bay each, housing 8 - 2TB HDD with a total of 16,000GB, and that too is almost full, AND I'm thinking of adding another 4 bay NAS drive. Not everyone use their HDD the same way. Some has more, or in my case, WWAAAYYYYY more content than others. Just so you know, 95% of bluray movies costs 40-60GB of HDD space EASY! PS3 games (non PSN): 4GB-50GB. So.. Is 500GB enough? Nah

  • @MaPee1982 what blue rays takes 40-60gb of hdd space? lol wow I have 75 blues and none takes any space besides all the bd live stuff it downloads, I never heard of that unless you join bd live I dont know and it downloads crap to your ps3 that takes 40-60gb of space, that I dont want, I dont join bd live but it still downloads bd live stuff, but no space very very very little if anything.

  • @leabooty a copy of a BD takes between 30gb and 60gb you must have movie rips and not disk copy's and even the movie copy's are in the 3-10gb area

  • @Bonznumber1 well yeah if you going to do movie rips, well I guess people would have to get a 1,000GB hdd but $20.00 just for the movie to me is a big waste of money to download from the PSN not ot say takes a long time to download, and for $25.00 you get the movie and the makeing etc... and takes no space to buy from bestbuy etc... see my 500GB is for games and games only, if you download movies and stuff like that well hell yeah you would need 1,000 or 2,000GBs lol

  • @leabooty i agree $20 to download a movie from PSN is a waste of money but paying to download movies is just dumb i'd rather get them for free =)

  • @Bonznumber1 right

  • @leabooty can't argue with free

  • @Bonznumber1 no if thats what you like, me I like to buy my movies and support my favorite actors etc...

  • @leabooty ya ill save cash where i can if i could get gas or power free i would i have no brand loyalty

  • @Bonznumber1 yeah I uderstand

  • @leabooty You obviously do not know much about Bluray my friend. I like to make (ratio) 1:1 copies and not cheap rips. If you had ever made legitimate lossless backups, instead of downloading crappy rips from torrent site, you'd know how much space (and time) one single Bluray image takes. Since the introduction of HDMI and Bluray, I refuse anything less.

  • @MaPee1982 OK GREAT

  • @MaPee1982 i agree completely my 2 tb has been full for over a year and i've been streaming content from my pc cause it has 15tb worth of hard drive space but it's still a pain in the ass i want to get a 4 bay encloser as well

  • @Bonznumber1 Right on. I try not to stream so much as the my home network's bandwith sucks. There's 10 PC/Laptop connected to my network (not including handheld devices, phones, mp3 player, etc). Also I will probably hint someone off about a 4 bay enclosure and hopes to receive it as a Christmas gift. LOL. But yeah, it's crazy how people thinks everyone uses and store the same amount of data as they do - Just because one likes to do 120 mph on the free way, doesn't mean I like to too. Oh well...

  • @MaPee1982 exactly it's like a guy with a prius telling a guy with a big ass Jeep that they don't need that much power. and that's just DUMB

  • No, joke. But this is really not hard, and this is a really useless video. Oh, wow. . . You have a 2 T PS3, . .

  • @daskiiai2 years ago this was big shit... look at the date on the vid

  • This makes me want a 1 exabyte hard drive.

  • @omfgwtf666obamahater an exabyte? That's alot of fucking porn O.o

  • bullshit, i have a petabyte on my ps3

  • @mikr0bas the funny thing is you had to use Google to find out what is bigger than a terabyte =)

  • @Bonznumber1 lol i found it on youtube :)

    The funny thing is that you don't understand jokes

  • @mikr0bas i actually got a kick pout of it cause that was my white hat handle years ago

  • @Bonznumber1 hahahaha

  • @OpticalxXxYoroxXx naw it's been full for a while

  • wow 2 TB is like, 2000GB right, wow!

  • @MultiShizznit yep that's correct

  • @Bonznumber1 Its more like 2048GB

  • @TheAceMan7  so just over 2TB

  • @Bonznumber1 eh lol, keep in mind it takes away like freakin 20 GB, because all the hard drives that i ever had were not always the FULL amount of memory, why is that again?

  • @TheAceMan7 because the size on the sticker is rated in gigabits not gigabytes and a bit is a little smaller than a byte so when windows reports it in bytes the size is smaller

  • @MultiShizznit 2048GB ;-)

  • lol even if u had all games for ps3 it wouldnt be 1 tb

  • @diegodaudt really? there are many games for ps3 that are in the 40-50gb range at 50gb that's only 20 games for 1tb

  • How do you jailbreak games onto a ps3? pm me who ever wants to, i just want to know

  • @ahbeast1 google it

  • Anyone and every one is doing this I have a 1Tb on my ps3. You just use linux and it formats to FAT32 really easy. But if you where to say that it was a 2.5" internal then we all would be very impressed.

  • @XRRB6T ya everyone is doing this NOW! but this vid is 2 years old man! no one was doing it when i did cause no one could fuigure out why just plugging in the drive didn't`t work

  • I did this with a 1TB years ago

  • @Simobelly /clap?

  • @Bonznumber1 So just plugging in a drive doesn't make a real 2TB PS3. kinda weird to call it that

  • @Simobelly don`t talk to me talk to the guy what did the worlds first 1tb ps3 vid! this is a reply to that

  • @Bonznumber1 no need to menstruate dude, Just saying a 2TB internal would be cooler than an external.

  • @Simobelly I wasn't, here's the deal buy me a 2.5" 2tb drive and i'll make a vid of a 2tb internal

  • @Bonznumber1 they don't exist yet but Western Digital make a 1TB 2.5" 5400rpm HDD, check out their site.

  • @Simobelly there you go if ppl 2tb internal size drives don't exist and yet everyone gives me grief about this not being an internal
