Making the ps3 hard drive external

[outfdblue]

Hi I have just install a 250gb on my ps3 with no problems. Everywhere i see people are saying that you can use the old hard drive as an external drive. So i bought a 2.5" enclosure however my computer doesnt recognize it as it should. For instance when i go into MY COMPUTER it doesn't show up. Down where the small clock is it shows that i can "safely remove" it. When i double click on it it even shows that it's a "mass storage devise" So is there a way to reformat the drive so it shows on my computer or a way to actually store information on it...thanks


By the way even if the drive doesn't work it was a great thing switching the hard drive for a big one. Now i use my computer even less.
