"industrial designers being the way they are, give you no clearances!??" ahh i dont think they intended for ppl to attack their ps3's with a sharp chisel. lol. sorry m8 not having a go i just had a big laugh though. thanks for the vid.

@hardstylez45

ha ha. you know what i mean designers work in fractions of millimeters, builders work within millimeters and us electricians work in centimeters.

Hi

its been a while since i did this but i remember getting this message. I think i had an issue with it not being plugged in properly. Maybe its the cable. The 500 gig should plug straight into slot. Try that. Otherwise try the ps forum thats where i got all my help. Good luck. Oh by the way my drive is still going fine never had any issues what so ever (once i got it working that is)

@MUSCLEMASSHAMMERFEST there are not even 2tb 2,5" hdds. stop lying

[lambobrian]

how about something useful like a processor or GPU?

[SageAnomie]

Its not this difficult now. There are 2.5inch 1tb hard drives now.

@ChiGuy16 im not euro and im 21 lol it's ok though

[ChiGuy16]

@ExKon i was only trying to help wiith what i know,  calm down with the noob shit only retarded euro jagoffs and 12 year olds say "noob".

[ExKon3]

@ChiGuy16 I get that it gets displaced into megabytes, only a total noob wouldn't understand that. Anyway that's not what I'm asking, I'm asking where does the 100GB go if there's nothing on ps3.

[ChiGuy16]

@ExKon3 it get displaced into megabytes, i remember freaking out back in 2005 when i put a $100 512MB in my PSP and it said some shit like 440 MB free. i called tech support and they explained it to me. they are there but they get diplaced and they round to the nearest GB.

[ExKon3]

when I installed new 1TB hdd into my ps3 it says 827 out of 931 free. Where are those 100gb go, I don't even have anything on the hdd yet.

@erickthetechie the ps3 may not recognise a 2tb hard drive. I thing some models wont support a internal hd with that size.
