Ps3 hard drive.

I have a 60gig ps3 and i wanna use my 160gig drive out of my laptop. When I tried putin it in the ps3 says I need to put a drive with fw version 3.5 in. Why is this and is there a way to make it work?

Download the fw update for your current version e.g 3.50

Put the file in
/PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP

Then turn on ps3

a few homebrews are already out ...but if you want backup managers ...they can backup games but wont play them ...you can try to patch them on .PKG files with ''RAW GAME INSTALLER'' but not all will work ...
