Your welcome :-) I'm not 110 % on what I said but I been around information technologies stuff for a while and I do computer related stuff for extra cash !!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:42:38 AM PDT by

Well as you can tell I have not a clue, lol

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:51:59 AM PDT by

Also all ps3s should have sata interface !! I would be tickled pink to have 640 gb hd in my ps3 cuz I only have stock 160 gb which is now down to roughly 100 gb or less !!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:40:24 AM PDT by

My son has been without his ps3 for a month now and he is going crazy!!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:53:06 AM PDT by

It's a toshiba - 640gb 5400rpm 8mb buffer sata-ii 2.5inch notebook drive (mk6476gsx). all ya have to do is look up the model #

Sep 12th, 2013 at 11:33:34 AM PDT by

Well one of the sellers let me know that if it wont format then that means it is probably no good so I'm going to try and pull it.

Sep 12th, 2013 at 7:58:31 PM PDT by

im willing to take a chance F&W its only credits you cant go and buy one any cheaper and who knows it just might work

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:42:14 PM PDT by

Well thank you and good luck, you think the way I do!!

Sep 14th, 2013 at 11:34:44 AM PDT by

Good luck on this auction!!!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:39:24 PM PDT by

T;hank you!!

Sep 14th, 2013 at 11:34:56 AM PDT by

I'm on disability for depression / bi polar... So a little extra cash for fixing computers does help big time !!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 9:12:14 AM PDT by

Extra cash is good no matter what, I wish I had the know-how to do that stuff!!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 1:31:17 PM PDT by

Everything I know has been from T & E !! Trial & Error :-) been around computers sense mom and step dad bought a computer when I was 7 in 1987 and I'm 33 now !! The old Commodore 64 / 128 but I didn't get really into this stuff til after I graduated high school in 1998 :-)

Sep 13th, 2013 at 9:00:17 AM PDT by

HaHa, if I learned anything at all from T & E, it would be don't drink and drive!!! I wouldn't be able to do anything if it weren't for having kids to help me out!!

Sep 13th, 2013 at 9:08:44 AM PDT by

It's clear as day a sata interface, ps3 takes a certain partition it's not like fat32 or the common ntfs people use now... But I bet if you hook it up with a PC that has sata connection you could format with a program like http://www.paragon-software.com/ and find a easy cloning software to clone the old ps3 if its still good and clone it with this hard drive !! The most common cloning program is norton ghost but they have alot of various programs out there that are freeware just do your homework everyone !! Good luck :-) to all

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:26:29 AM PDT by

Thank you and I was looking in the Sony site this morning and it gives a list of all the different drives that are compatible with the ps3 and I did find another one in here that I bid on.

Sep 13th, 2013 at 8:36:29 AM PDT by

So would you want this hard drive back if someone wins and it won't format. I'm wanting to bid, but if it doesn't format than I would want my credits back.

Sep 12th, 2013 at 8:17:35 PM PDT by

Oh yes, if you want to try it and it doesn't work you will most certainly get your credits back, I had to give the last winner 20,000 credits back because they said it wouldn't format and I paid shipping to have it sent back to me.

Sep 12th, 2013 at 8:26:43 PM PDT by

my hubby runs a computer repair business..for a living. He stated if someone stated it will not format.. then the drive is probably no good. (faulty) Not to be a stick in the mud on your auction... you stated you didn't know what it meant. But if it will not format..it makes a great paperweight. lol But ya never know. Maybe the person who won it before - didn't know what they were doing. :) ~ Smile

Sep 12th, 2013 at 7:03:39 PM PDT by

Thank you and I am going to update because I don't want someone to waste their credits even though they get them back it takes a while, Lord knows I know all about that!!

Sep 12th, 2013 at 7:54:49 PM PDT by

oops sorry thought my comment was deleted, but it was at the top....

Sep 12th, 2013 at 11:53:07 AM PDT by

No worries!!

Sep 12th, 2013 at 1:51:15 PM PDT by

Ship it with tracking no.?

Sep 7th, 2013 at 7:56:07 PM PDT by

Yes, I always ship with tracking it just is more comforting to the winner if they know, and thank you.

Sep 7th, 2013 at 8:11:25 PM PDT by

is this pata or sata /pin style connection if your not sure could you take a picture of the side where it connects

Sep 11th, 2013 at 2:49:05 PM PDT by

I believe it is Sata but I can check for sure and let you know.

Sep 11th, 2013 at 6:15:54 PM PDT by

That's fine, I figured that...thank you

Sep 10th, 2013 at 10:46:01 PM PDT by

Your welcome

Sep 11th, 2013 at 4:10:45 AM PDT by

I'm not sure how to do a GIN auction myself, but you usually have to be a good seller to be able to use that option. I'm just a buyer on here not a seller.

Sep 10th, 2013 at 4:59:22 PM PDT by

I have used GIN one time before and Iknow once someone has placed a bid you can no longer do GIN, I am sorry!!

Sep 10th, 2013 at 7:46:10 PM PDT by

Usually when you first put an item up for bid, there's a GIN (Get It Now) what you do is put in however many credits you think the item is worth and someone else will be able to press the button and get the item right then and there. That means they won't have to wait for the auction to end. It benefits you too because than you don't have to wait days for your auction to end either.

Sep 10th, 2013 at 4:58:05 PM PDT by

Yeah I had a guy that really wanted my Sega and asked me to do it and no one had bid yet so as soon as I put it in he bid and got it.

Sep 10th, 2013 at 7:47:37 PM PDT by

I'll give ya 7,000 for it right now

Sep 10th, 2013 at 1:42:13 PM PDT by

I don't know how to do that?

Sep 10th, 2013 at 3:55:56 PM PDT by

ok ill keep watching

Sep 10th, 2013 at 6:07:33 AM PDT by

Ok and thank you.

Sep 10th, 2013 at 10:00:55 AM PDT by

would you take 5100 now for it ?

Sep 10th, 2013 at 4:19:28 AM PDT by

I don't think I can change anything but shipping once a bid has been placed, I am not sure?

Sep 10th, 2013 at 4:26:57 AM PDT by

do you know what size it is

Sep 8th, 2013 at 11:03:12 PM PDT by

I think it's in the description, 640 gb? I guess that is the size.

Sep 9th, 2013 at 7:49:11 AM PDT by

So did you try and format it on a laptop? Just curious because I don't want to spend all my credits on a hard drive that's bad to begin with.

Sep 8th, 2013 at 5:32:31 PM PDT by

No, I tried it in my sons ps3, that was what I wanted it for tne last winner said they could not get it to format.
