How can you make a Sony Playstation 3 compatible with usb 3.0?
I have an external hard drive that features the usb 3.0. I wanted to play all my songs and videos stored in the external hard drive through Sony's PS3 but, unfortunately, the PS3 can't detect the external hard drive. I'm not certain if the PS3 is the problem but I have tried connecting the external hard drive to my laptop and it works like a charm. Can anyone help me?
If you want your PS3 to recognize USB 3.0, you need to replace the USB hardware on the PS3 motherboard with USB 3.0 hardware.
USB 3.0 is the speed at which the USB ports can transfer information. USB 2.0 is faster than USB, and USB 3.0 is faster than USB 2.0 and USB.
The speed of the USB port (USB 3.0) has nothing to do with the HDD connecting. Since the PS3 only has USB 2.0, data will only transfer at 2.0 speeds, it won't use the 3.0 capability the HDD has.
If the HDD won't connect, there is something wrong with the setup of the HDD (did you reformat it in FAT32 in order for the PS3 to recognize it?).
