    I have a few questions, if i you connect a 3.5 HDD to the playstation internal (with a different power source) And format it.
    Then it would be formated like a PS3 internal HDD (witch i think is UFS2)
    If you then unplug it and put it back in external case and connect it with usb would it work?

    And is there anyone working on a way to connect NTFS drives to your PS3?

    because then ALL of thier games can be played from external.

    DONT HOLD YOUR BREATH!!! SONY will never enable NTFS support., i dont even think they can since its a M$ product.

    UFS2 or 3 would be the way to go
