Hi, I have just brought a Toshiba External HDD for my PS3 and it is not working. I have created two partitions on the drive one fat 32 (for the PS3) and one NTFS it sees the fat 32 partition but when you try to copy anything onto it, it crashes, any help?

What made you buy an external for it? To do what?
Or try creating the correct folder structure on the PC and copy some content from the PC to the HDD and see if the PS3 can use that content.
But I am just guessing at some of the things I may try in your position as I have never had the problem you describe myself
They are great for videos and backing up. I use an external HDD for all my videos on PS3.
I do the same, although I store some of my music on the PS3 itself as custom soundtracks do not work from an external HDD
I tried the folder structure trick and it didn't work. Unfortunately. I needed the HDD to be two partitions as it has the families reload and recovery images of their laptops stored on this HDD. too. Which come in at over 4gb. Ah cest la vie
