You will have to power your new HDD externally ... either with a 220/110V to molex/sata-power adapter or you can buy one of those external/cased SATA HDDs from companies like LaCie, Seagate and others. Also note that once your PS3 is connected with an external drive you can no longer put your console vertically as the adapter is on the bottom. The 'IDE to SATA Adapter' (sold separately) allows you to easily connect any IDE HDD with your PS3.

While this setup uses IDE, you can also use it with an e-SATA external casing.

anyone else use one of these?

for $25+ and a little extra for a case, I can run an old 320gb IDE drive instead of ponying up $180 for a 2.5 320GB

Or even just buy a new 500 GB SATA 3.5 drive and case with this for less than a 2.5 320gb drive
