oPolo · 09-13-2012

Hi dear friends,

I was offered to buy a PS3 slim 320GB version for around 60e.
It, however, has the problem that periodically the PS3 HDD is not detected, and the PS3 needs to be rebooted to and then with some luck, the hdd is detected. I don't know about the frequency of the problems sadly.

anyway, has any of you any idea what the problem might be, and have any of you heard about it before?

I figured I could just format the HDD, but it might be a HDD failure - I don't really know... I have spare 2.5" 120GB SATA HDD lying around, I could just use in it instead, but again.. I don't know if its actually a hardware problem on the HDD.

If any of you have any idea what is going on, please ***** in :D I honestly have ****ing no idea what is going on :D

Thankxx mates :')
