100% sure you are allowed to swap the harddrive. I think you even get instructions on how to do it with the ps3 booklet.

You can use external USB drives for video/photos/music, but not play games off them, I think.


This post is 100% correct. The instructions to do so are in the book and it doesn't void the warranty. The last sentence is also true. I have an External hooked up to my PS3 all the time.

So I can not play games directly off an external hard drive? :(    Oh, well, I probably will upgrade my hard drive soon so thanks. Now I just have to find that manual that you spoke of....


It comes with your PS3. Also, I believe that SONY keeps an online version of the manual at playstation.com. And I don't really want to get up and check but I think there's a link to it on the PS3 the same section as the web browser

Thank you.
