Obv it will need formatting to FAT32 to get it working via USB on the PS3, It is the same as an External HDD, :fa:

Yes, a portable HDD doesn't require a power supply and can function solely off of a USB socket. A non portable HDD usually comes with a plug you have to put in the wall and the plug the HDD into the USB. Long story short yeah they're both Hard drives.

yea lol thought u new this stuff m8

I do :fa: but i thought something might be wrong seeing i searched for external HDD, So just making sure

Both the same, just portable doesn't need to be plugged in to the wall.

I got myself a 256GB USB for my PS3 ^^ Should work too

yea if its usb powered it will work for ps3, tell him to also make a pc backup if he can in case it takes a shit

They are both HDDs so it should work on ps3
