na, have an external hdd, make a case for it to match the console, and place the chip in that case to, and use a sort of cable to connect tho the gap. Then wire up both ends :p lol Hard, but not exposed n wud av both.

Here are the specs, http://www.us.playstation.com/pressreleases.aspx?id=227 It will be in stores on Nov 1st in the US and Europe. It does have 2 USB connectors so i am going to hope for possible USB HD support. If not it kind of pisses me with Sony. IMO no HD support is a step backwards!

Actually this is not such a bad idea! Mod the case of the PStwo, fit a shielded plugin for both hdd and chip. Run the wiring inside PStwo for soldering points to support a chip and hdd. Then fabricate a case (frag box) with shielded plugins and a small power supply to power (internal) hdd. Fit an eide plugin on both cases, connect them with appropriate cables and whahla you got your self a nifty lil whatyamajigger. Ofcourse there is a little more to it but the concept isnt a bad idea. Not sure if this would actually work but in theory, who knows.

Edit: After more thought, this would be hella cool but the bios probably would not support this kind of craziness/madness. We would need to flash it.

Nah, too much work for a piece of crap PSTwo :) :p ;)

Yep! Your probably right. LOL :p

"When the slim-downed unit was revealed, keen-eyed observers asked, "where's the hard-disc drive bay?" We posed the question to Sony, which confirmed the new unit would not have an HDD bay."

Read more about it HERE. Includes an interesting story about the fate of Final Fantasy XI.

what's the point?
 

With the PStwo isn't the game a top loader like it was with the playstation? So if you are trying to save room by having a smaller console, doesn't the range of the door completely negate the whole thing? I think I'll wait for the PS3.

Exactly... I think I will too. :)

and me, but when the price drops :)

Whatever, but Ill be getting a PSTwo. Well, because, its what I do. ;)




Tyler!

Yeah like I already said, I'll probably be getting one as well.
