I personally haven't tried one yet, but have been thinking about it as prices drop. It would be a good way to ensure I would never lose any data. |

Anybody know anything about the "Dell" branded hard drives that they sell on their website? I can order from them through work (nothing out of pocket) but they have a very limited selection of other brands . . . i.e. I could get a 200 gig Seagate for $80 or a 250 gig Dell drive for $129. Should I just stick with the known brand and the smaller capacity?

I bought a 500gb samsung hard drive a couple of weeks ago and so far it is great. Odds are, if you drive is a "Dell" drive, it was probably made by seagate or western digital anyway and then licensed off. Good luck. |

Hi newbie here rapidly losing hair as:
I’ve just replaced my original PS3 Fujistu 40 GB HDD with a Western Digital Scorpio WD3200BEVT 320GB 2.5" Internal SATA Hard Drive and I’m having issues with restoring my back up. 1. backed up all 28gb of data on a IDE 160 WD 1600AVJB using an usb sata/ide to usb adaptor after I had firstly set up the ide back up drive as fat 32 with swissknife and back up went fine using PS3 menus all good. Then a week later my new hard drive for ps3 truned up and I replaced Hdd and switched on PS3, asked to format which it did formatted and then told me I needed a firmware update so I then downloaded firmware update 2.53 from internet as requested and all was going fine all done in 1.30mins - 1 hour back up - 10 m ins install and 20 mins to format and replace firmware. 2. The I went to restore back up data from my IDE drive using USB IDE/SATA adaptor lead and WD 160GB. Powered down ps3 attached power lead to HD then attached adaptor cable from HDD to PS3 USB port and powered back up. Then went to back up utility on menu and now ps3 won't recognize the usb hard drive . It just keeps asking me to insert media with back up on it what the heck is going on?? Won’t even recgonise it to back up on either as i've tried that also. Tried adaptor on laptop and all is fine all folders are still there [PS3] - [EXPORT] – [BACKUP] and all archive data is in back up folder. What I can't understand is PS£ found usb drive no problem at all for original back up a week ago when PS3 had 40GB HDD still in it and original 2.53 firmware setup?? Why won't it find the USB hard disk with back up data on it now it has the new 320GB HDD installed and another 2.53 firmware update any ideas????? Please before I commit hari kari |

Anyone else's HDD screws seem like they have fused in place? Mine are RIDICULOUS and I have not been able to loosen tham at all! I have my 320GB HDD ready to rock, but the 60GB will not yield.

What size screwdriver are you using? Using the proper size screwdriver and a little wrist (a little harder than opening a bottle of soda) had mine coming off unstripped

tried a #00 and #000, but they were made in china. I bought a real precision set yesterday like I had been intending to do for awhile.

The largest phillips head in this set (available at Walmart for under $6) did the trick for me

These were unbelievable. Wouldn't budge, even with a screw extractor set. I ended up using a 1/8" bit and drilling the heads off two of the 4 screws.
