Hi!

I just bought the E3 Flasher Limited, and i have PS3 model CECH-2004A (Samsung)

I installed it like the http://www.e3-tech.net/download/correct.jpg says.
I put everything back together.
I turn off PS3, turn off ESATA Station, unplug the PS3 power supply, install the hard drive to ESATA Station, plug the ESATA cord, plug the
PS3 power supply, turn on ESATA Station, and Power on the PS3)

Screen turn Black for few seconds, and On the screen it said "Can't find the correct hard disk"

I reopen the PS3 and reconnect everything, put back together again, Power on PS3, Same thing "Can't find the correct hard disk"

Anyone able to help me out with this problem?
Thank you so much

Make sure the e3 card is plugged all the way in the ps3. And make sure the SATA cable is securely connected between the station and the front of the e3. Also make sure the esata station green light is on indicating it has power.
If that doesn't work, maybe your esata station or its SATA cable is faulty.

Yes I understand, I checked everything, everything connected securely. The flasher light work (red, blue, green). Esata station light on. Just don't know why

Which cable is the sata cable?

The SATA cable plugs in the front of the flasher then goes to the esata station.

OK, i got it work, but have another problem

I follow playerkp420 TUT.
When I get to step 5, I got a problem

4. Move the switches to 1 and 2 down, 3 up, 4,5, and 6 down. Press reset.
5. Press start and wait for the blue led light to light up in sequence. When all lights have lit and alternate flash the backup is done.

When i press start, I see 3 light flashing 1100010
not as he mention light up in sequence. and I checked the e3flasher log, it said start logging... PS3 is operating Nor.

had same problem with same ps3, you need to cut of a corner of the clip because there is a litte resistance that blocks the clip.
You need to cut of this corner:

and as you can see here the little resistance (do not cut of the resistance!):
