It's an internal drive, but that makes sense. I guess the PS3 reformatted the drive with its own code once it was regocnised.
I can see where Joey's coming from, neither Windows 7's native media streaming nor PS3 Media Server could successfully (read: bufferlessly. Which wasn't a word. Until now.) stream anything more than mp3s from my computer. As an example, a 4:10 video, 20MB filesize, 660Kbps total data rate - you'd think there'd be no trouble streaming that over wireless g, which is 54Mbps.
the file system for the internal drive is different, and definitely not FAT32 or NTFS. It's a proprietary file system from Sony, which may be based on or similar to Linux Ext3.
It's JFS, licenced from IBM, with 256bit DES encrpytion. It has has modifications for database indexing for media and faster XMB loading.
The encrypton locks it so ONLY the PS3 that created the partition can ever read it (to stop people imaging the HDD, and therefore copying the data to another PS3).
Sorry, had a brain fade when I wrote that. Indeed it's AES, you can't do 256biit DES.....
Except the developer documentation says it's JFS...
It could be JFS with 256bit AES encryption:

I don't know if the text was up when you posted, but for the non-Japanese speakers the first part reads "Beta Test". I don't recognise the kanji, can you PureAwesomeness?
Err, I've tried to download the Gran Turismo 5 E3 trailer from the Australian Playstation Store, only to find the file isn't actually the trailer at all, but instead a small ModNation Racers photo called "ModNation Thumbnail Generic.png". Anyone else come across this?
That's for the second one. I'm looking for a thread about the first game.![]()
On the US PSN Store, Godzilla 2000 is free to rent! For a limited time only though.
^^^^same, i bid fairwell to my Family Guy episodes.... and free anything from video stores. I know a shop that fixes ylod, was thinking of getting fixed just to deactivate it.
Too bad I can't download and watch videos with my PS3. I have to deactivate my original PS3 first and activate it for my current one. Too bad my original PS3 suffered from YLOD and is dead.
Now I have to wait for Sony to deactivate it from their end, which is going to take a week.![]()
You should call Sony at 1-800-345-SONY and tell them to deactivate your old PS3. They have to send you an email to verify who you are to get it done, so it takes a while for it to happen. .
