May be the hard drive is password protected. Download the hard disk password breaker application and run it on the hard drive. If there is password, the application will remove it and then you will be able to format the drive in fat32. If you are using Windows Vista then you will be able to format the drive without any problem. |

In order to make you hard disk compatible with the PS3 I think you have to format it by selecting Dos Drive which supports NTFS format. The other way is to format it in computer do not forget to select the NTFS format not FAT32. I am very much sure you can use it now now on the PS3. |
