today I bought an external hard drive. the Model is:

WD My Passport 500 GB USB 2.0/3.0

I formatted in FAT 32 but PS3 does not read it, I also created the partitions, but nothing can someone help me?

Hook it back up to your PC. Go into Easeus and delete the partition, create a new partition and set it as the primary not logical, and format it to FAT32. Click apply settings and you should be good to go. I use Easeus and that's what I do.

Yo didnt think of this earlier cause i never do it and dont have issues, but sometimes issues come with externals/thumb drives when you dont hit "eject" in your OS before unplugging it. Probably not the issue, like i said i never hit eject and everything works fine for me, but there is always that chance it wont work correctly
