I'm currently backing up my external drive, I'll let you guys know how it's going for me to :)
140GB...might be a while.

Did you format it first?

Yup it was harder then I thought, at first I did it with windows and it formatted to exfat, then I realized exfat wasn't going to work so I went looking for a free program to convert 1 TB, took a while but I eventually did.

Also I have game files saved on the PS3 thats about 4.5 GB+ but I read that FAT32 wont save files over 4GB? that right?

lol just looked at the PS3 says 10 hours remaining....wow

When I backed up my PS3, it was 113GB, and it had 35 files that were 3.99 GB each. So... I guess that's what it does

How long did it take, I have about 140GB on my PS3 and it's going to take over 9 hours to copy @_@

It took about 3 hours on my PS3 Slim.

I used USB 3.0 external drive, but the PS3 doesn't have USB 3.0, so it should only transfer at USB 2.0 speeds
