Hacking Am I screwed? PS3 Hard drive question

[Ohgr]

Even a 900gb fat32 partition in MBR cannot be read on my ps3... So basically I have a paper weight... How are people getting 4tb drives to work? Is it because on usb 2.0 MBR drives could be larger than 2tb?

Can someone tell me what hard drives they use to make this work? I have a ps3 phat model. I would like to be able to use some sort of external drive. I now have 8tbs of wasted storage, one I can use on my ps4 hopefully. The other will collect dust for now. At this point I do not care what file type I use between fat32 or NTFS but I do want a large storage drive if possible.

Did you create the USB.CFG for your NTFS formatted drive? Are you sure you're using MBR and not GBT? You should be able to format one of your 4TB drives as MBR with a 2TB NTFS partition and the PS3 should read it.
