Sony - PS3 FAT32 Question? - View Post

PS3 can recognise Fat32 or ext2. I am assuming you are saying that your file is greater than 4gb and that you transferred via an EXT HDD? I think by default the file system for the PS3 is in ext2 format. For external transfer via a HDD it is also possible to have a Fat32 file system that supports larger than 132gb volume sizes but I am not sure if they allow for more than the 4gb file limit. There are free extended Fat32 utils etc.

if you are using an external HDD then I suggest extended Fat32. Obviously transfer over a network makes it all irrelevant since the source and destination file systems do not come into play.

PS3 Media Server allows the PS3 to the NTFS volumes basically striped of all their permissions.
