    Oh yeah im wrong that's not the 40GB one;
    must be a 60GB or 20 GB or some like that.

    "the Xecuter HDXT PS3 Hard Drive Xtender"
    works only with those i guess 20 GB, 60GB etc...

    Its a fat one
    Make sure you butter the non reflective side of your CD's / DVD's and Blu-Rays so that when you drop them, they land butter side down thus preventing scratches.

    US Models A, B, E, E MG, G, and I think H all use that HDD setup.

    Not sure about the other markets.

    So it could be 20, 40, 60, or 80 gigs (I think 80 came in one of those models).

    If you look on the back it's at the end of the serial # CHEH### or something like that. The letter is the model number, the 2 digit number is the country code.
