Can you use this for additional space on a ps3?

In my case I had to plug in another lapto a little more advanced, for the installation of a program and then connect it to my computer a little older and read it without problems, but at first I did have trouble getting hard aldisco, I recommend other users first connect to another computer and that more advanced reconosca it first and then the other it does not recognize it.

Probably... read this article, it can help explain how."http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-3/How-to-use-a-USB-external-Hard-Drive-on-your-PS3/td-p/14303247&q;uot;

Unfortunately, when I plugged it up to my PlayStation 3, the light came on, indicating that it was on, but the PS3 didn't see it at all. It may be because it's formatted to NTFC by default and I think that the PS3 only reads FAT32 format. That should make it add additional space.

I am not sure but I think so because I have used mine in my Smart TV LG 3D to watch movies and works perfectly....

I installed this drive in a PS3, that transferred the PS3 system, you would need to transfer the one system you need.

I placed mine under a flat screen TV as well and I placed under it my children's PS3 console and it did fit perfectly well. I did not use all the stacking levels to raise it up. I think you will have enough room.

Not sure as I do not own a PS3 and am not sure of its size. I keep a 15 inch laptop, power brick, mouse and many cables/adapters in mine with plenty of room to spare.

Yes, I have the 750GB in my PS3. Works like a champ. I am thinking of switching it out and using it in my PS4.

It depends on what you mean by "will this work." If you mean "could I put the original ps4 hdd in this, put in a bigger drive, then use this as additional storage on my PS4?" I have no idea. If you mean "can I take the original PS4 hdd out and use this as an external drive for my computer?" the answer is yes.

the PS3 comes standard with a 2.5" SATA hard drive. If you were to replace it your largest current option is one of the 500GB 2.5" Sata hard drives (Seagate,Hitachi, and others make them). The drives menioned above are 3.5" SATA hard drives that would not fit normally into the slot. That said you might be able to "make it work" with an external hard drive case and a SATA to eSATA adapter, but it would be extreme and non trivial.

I dont see why not. if your gaming make sure you get a bigger one. i ran out of room on my laptop so i use all the games on the external

I've used this hard drive in my 80gb ps3. It's worked great so far. I probably have 20-30 downloadable games installed and still have plenty of space.

You can use a Thumbdrive to add extra space, or if you are away, u could use a External Harddrive with its own power source and watch movies or music from it

Hi, CamiliaThe ps3 is for a play station 3 for playing games. The WD hard drive is for computers the answer is no.

I use the hard drive for my Asus laptop so I have no experience using the hard drive on a ps3

Yes. There is a selector on top of the dock that allows it to move backwards to allow for the additional space.

Camilia, The extra storage compartment on the PS3 is for a 2.5" drive. This one is an inch too large.In addition, according to the orignal specs, you'll need a 2.5" Sata 5400 RPM HDD which are 8MB, 12 ms, 3 Gbps. Going to a 7,200 may cause your PS 3 to overheat. In rare cases, the damage might be unrecoverable.

I have the same question. Can you fit the Sony 300 CD Mega Storage inside this tower?
