Removable HDD Installation Theory.....?
Hi im just curious, ive been looking at a few tutorials on how to dis-assemble the ps3. Im curious to know if there is enough room to insert another external HDD thru the use of one of the front USB connections.... I just need to knnow if there is enough room under the second half of the lid to place another HDD into it, and possibly run the cables out the back or front to another usb so i dont have to keep moving it around or having it sit outside the ps3....
Any idears would be helpfull, thx!

Re: Removable HDD Installation Theory.....?
BlackBerry uses these:
Made by Toshiba... THAT would fit in there, but who knows what the interface would be like. No real space either, like 4GB, and I have a 4GB MicroDrive USB device.
There is nothing small enough with any viable room... Not only that? If you could manage to slide a laptop drive in there somewhere, you will be adding more heat to the unit. IT looks like there is room, from looking at the BACK of the clear case mod, right side bottom... One may fit in there...
