Can I plug this into my PS3 and view pictures/video on my PS3/TV? Would this drive pretty much work the same?

PS3 (last i checked) only reads flash drives and hard drives formated in FAT32, not NTSC. Large hard drives come formatted in NTSC, and windows XP and vista will not format large hard drives into NTSC, so you have to download other software on your comp in order to format your hard drive to fat32. Then it will read music, video, pics that are the correct file types that PS3 can read. Also system update your ps3 so it can read as many files as possible. Download this program to format: http://www.compuapps.com/download/Swissknife/swissknife.htm

When you say can this work.... In what terms do you mean? What exactly do you want to do with it? If you want to view pictures or movies then yes it will work. There are many things that you can do with the s3 jump drive. It is an amazing tool to have/use.

I do not have a ps3, however, Ps3 do not have a direct audio output for USB, then you will need to buy an adapter from USB to the HDMI output if you want to enjoy the 7.1 surround

Apparently, yes. Went to deals dot woot dot com and somebody said they use it on their ps3 as it supports plug and play.

I don't see why not as long as your PS3 has an HDMI port. You should be able to plug and play from any device with an HDMI port to any VGA monitor.

this hard drive works in a PS3 I am using this in my PS4 and it works great I use 1TB hard drive in my PS3 I buy and download all my games from the PlayStation Store . you say you are having issue with the video and sound could be the hard drive is going bad or the inside of the ps3 has a lot of dust in it you can try canned air and blow the dust out of the ps3 and see how that works just make sure your ps3 is off when you use the canned air I ended up getting the god of war bundle red ps3 how long have you had your ps3

You can see and browse, but so far I always get corrupt video errors when trying to stream anything. Works fine on my PS3, but would still like to see it work on the BluRay downstairs too!

From the reviews I've seen on Newegg, yes, this drive can upgrade a PS3 since it's 9.5mm height. I plan on buying one this week to upgrade my 120GB slim so I have more storage for the new wave of PS Plus games coming out

I only use it for my ps3 but im sure u could its set up as fat32 so your computer would recognize it as a flash drive.

Yes it does. This was the sole purpose for me purchasing the drive and it works great. As long as you follow the instructions on reinstalling the PS3 firmware onto the drive, you should have no issues. You'll notice a substantial speed increase for system boot and installing/running games. The capacity helps as well.

This would work as a external drive, just remember it is a FAT32 hard drive. We used to download information from the PS3 and it had to be FAT32.

yes. you'll need to backup any prevous data off the old drive you want to keep. but i've been running mine in a ps3 and it works great.

Yes. The drive works with TV, but will loose signal from file at random intervals while watching a video. This happened to me every time I tried watching a video.

I use it with an Apple TV and have no first hand experience using it with a PS3. It should work with the PS3 as HDMI is a standardized interface. On some monitors I have to adjust my Apple TV's settings in order to get an image, then I have to further refine the settings to get the best possible image (still not high def. in some cases). You will also need a VGA cable to go from the adapter to the monitor and any speaker wire adapters to feed sound from the 3.5mm audio port to your speakers of choice. Hope this helps.

if you use the basic rca cables that came with the ps3 and plug it into the reciever with an hdmi cable connecting the tv and reciever it might work.
