  • Make sure you format the HDD as fat32 file system not NTFS.

  • Yes PS3 only read fat32

  • Once you restore the saved stuff on the new hard drive, you will have EVERYTHING on the system that you had before? Plus more space?

  • Yes

  • i stripped my screws wat should i do

  • You can use a drill with a small drill bit to grind the screw out. be careful not to push in the drill to hard.

  • What do you do if you have a PS3 that does not have a HDD access panel. Does my sone have aone that is not upgradeable?

  • @PCRescueRepair I have a problem. I have an original 40Gb PS3 (fat), and I'm upgrading with a 500Gb Samsung 2.5 inch SATA internal drive. I've followed all the steps to the letter, and when I restart my PS3 with the new hard drive it straight away comes up with the following message:

    "Cannot start

    Cannot find a connected hard disk." (or something like that)

    Do you have any idea what's wrong with my set up?

  • i need so much help,, u know wen u remove the hard drive u move it to the right,, well my ps3 i have doesnt do that,, is that normal

  • how do i format my external hard drive to fat 32 please HELP ?

  • do a USB Flashdrive need to be formatted to FAT32???
