Damn hard drive was too thick to put in the cradle so I put it in there without the cradle and turned on the PS3 and it wouldn't recognize the hard drive...thought I was SOL, but took it out and put it back in and it worked. Just need to be careful not to bump the system too much and jar the HDD loose. In the process of restoring now.
HDD successfully installed. 566GB free :up:
Odd I had ZERO problems must be a difference in the brand or something.Quote:

Right, but again, the drives are designed to fit into that cradle.Quote:

Other than the brand it looks exactly the same as the one I purchasedQuote:

Odd.
Well all-in-all, the drive is installed (though without a cradle) and the system is restored so I'm happy :)

Well ... 99% of HDDs are going to look the same. According to NewEgg there is a slight difference in the size between the two. Maybe enough to make a difference with the cradle. The height difference was a few mm.Quote:

Snuck in a couple of rounds of Counterstrike: GO last night. I'm impressed for a shooter that cost me $12 (PS+ Price) I really dug it. It's fast paced, rounds go quick, no respawn. And it has a :plat: :nod:
That's nothing. The Steam version has 180 achievements, I believe. :D
I think that probably matches the in-game achievements. There aren't many trophies, but the :plat: is the one that matters :nod:Quote:

I need to look at all these PS+ games I downloaded to see what does and what does not have the :plat:
I've been messing with Pac-Man lately I don't think it has a plat and I'm nearly done with all the trophies but its still a fun/free throwback to the arcade days growing up as a kid in the 80s.
For the PS3, they're not bad. On 360, there's one for 10,000 kills. I don't know why they have different lists. There's a couple on PS3 that look pretty challenging because it's all luck, but it's far more obtainable than the ones for 360.Quote:
