Supposedly, yes (although some saves are probably locked) - may just be easier if you're considering it to thumb drive the small files like saves and then just replace the drive and re-DL all the big files. (Or use the PS+ backup on save games ideally - not all saves are copiable under the normal system but all can be backed up with PS+)I've tried it on the PC and it works (slowly), was just curious. Can you copy all of your games/saves/etc from the native hard drive to a new one in some fashion? I think mine has the 120GB and I'm running out of space.
Nod - the PS3 OS does seem to catch it at times too to do it as well though. After I swapped the disk back in for my old (now wife's PS3) PS3 it caught that the disk needed to be reformatted and partitioned and did it auto - it had not been doing it previously however. [And I was thinking it was NTSF only or whatever the N one is, so good thing I stayed iffy on it - because FAT32 definitely sounds right...]Right, you clean it with diskpart and then format it to fat32. That's not even remotely hard, and it would probably fix almost any disk that doesn't actually suffer from mechanical failure.
Thanks. Shopping for one now.Make sure the height of any disk you buy is 0.4 inches and not 0.5 inches. I made that annoying mistake.
Woot, I wasn't off this time finally. Not that I can imagine ever needing more than 2 TB on a PS3 though. (I'm having trouble filling my 500 GB even with PS+ and buying a decent amount of digital)Yeah, the upper limit of 2TB is a FAT32 limitation.
