Please help. I just ordered a new HDD for my PS3 so now I need an external HDD that is 60GB or more. I am willing to pay for shipping to me as well as a little extra for the help. I will send the HDD back the day after I receive it. I would like to get it soon. Thanks in advance for any help

I just found a 60GB USB hard drive today. It was my dad's, it's used, & I've no idea how to get it to work. If you want to walk me through deleting everything/anything off of it, etc., & will pay for the cost of shipping then you're welcome to borrow it =) |

do you have a USB cable to connect it to the computer? If you do, just hook it up and make sure it comes up as FAT32. If it doesnt then I dont want it but if it does just highlight all the files and click delete if you dont need them

You can format HDD's to Fat32 or NTFS.. (http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/form...) It is the same thing for NTFS as fat32.

I should have a 30gb drive I can technically loan you. I don't think you need a 60gb loaner drive...unless you actually have 60gb worth of save files. everything else can be downloaded again or reinstalled. |

I don't even think you can transfer installs, and even if you can...copying it back via usb would be the same as installing the game itself. |

BJB I'll hookup this external USB hard drive tomorrow & see what there is to see. I'll let you know what happens. |

Looks like the HDD is working. I've deleted the files, "quick formatted" it & am now checking/fixing bad sectors. Since this is starting to look like this thing works I'll send you an official offer. |
