Team Xecuter with something for your PS3 — snazzy stuff… It features:
When you connect the system announces the drive requires formatting etc and then promptly begins to prep it. All system settings are unchanged so they are stored internally to the PS3 and not on the HDD.
We can assure you that larger hard drives will be essential in the near future. After speaking to colleagues from the Playstation Scene, booting games from HDD is possible and not far off. As the games are blu-ray (17gb+ dumps available) then the larger HDD the better, and you wont get very large and cheap 2.5″ drives, however 250GB 3.5″ drives are close to $60 these days.
We may release a simple adapter first so you can hook up with ease right now rather than wait for release of the HYPERDRIVE, that won’t take too long at all to release.
“After speaking to colleagues from the Playstation Scene, booting games from HDD is possible and not far off.” *gasps* I’m sure you all know about the recent dumps that have been circulating… ;)
Stay tuned!

Start buying them HDD’s, Blu-Ray discs hold up to a total of 40 GB ;)
I got my 160gig one + my 60gig playstation plus another 205gig and another 300gig so ill have sum games ;)
Just what I wanted to hear. Locked and loaded with HDD space out the arse. Any word on the posted E-Loader thats due on Dec 22?
O.O yeah blu-ray pwns …but the prices are OUTRAGEOUS!
Blue ray can hold up to 200gb on and 8 layer blue ray disk.
Easier method…… There is a better way to add a bootable 750GB 3.5″ SATA HDD to the PS3 than Team Xecuter’s method. It’s looks so much better and it is even n00b friendly. You won’t have to wait any longer or buy anything from them.
