(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey, my PS3 just recently broke and I took it apart and tried fixing it but got no luck. But before I threw it away (I took EVERYTHING apart) I took out the HDD (Disk Drive). Its the 120 GB slim from 2009, and its a Toshiba. Can I use it as a external hard drive? I think I can but do I need a enclosure for it? If I do, what kind do I need, and can you please post the link to buy it (I only use Amazon and eBay) thanks!!

Ahh well thanks for all your help bruh, I finally found the problem haha. I havve to press and hold on this (shown in the picture) for it to get power. I thought the green light shows only when you plug it in. Looks like the light has to be actually on for the computer to find it. Well I formatted it and itsin FAT32 format finally Happy[ATTACH=CONFIG]14494[/ATTACH]
