New PS3 Super Slim 320 GB model only uses 12GB "Flash Memory"

Bought a PS3 SuperSlim 320GB model( http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00422MS8E?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00 )to replace my now broken FAT 80GB PS3 (that broke recently), I looked and though might as well upgrade get a slim or super slim, more memory quiter ext, so the console arived today and I plugged it in and all was fine, I signed in went on the store and tried downloading one of my games I bought on the PSN store and the message pops up, not enough memory.I sit puzzled looking, there is nothing but the 4.75 system update, then I looked at my system info and it says "9101mb / 12 gb ", "System storage in use Flash Memory". I looked around and it says to make a PS2 / 1 memory card and it made it using none of the 12 GB up, I then formatted the full system, took me to the initial settup screen etc, and the flash memory still had the update on and still isnt using the stupid 320GB memory ( https://i.imgur.com/TBI0hq2.jpg ) , just spent nearly £200, buying a decent console and now its more useless then the 80GB one... Thanks for any help...

One of these should do you.

If you do decide on another hdd you will need the bracket included with the above hdd.
Make sure the height of the hdd is 9.5mm or less or it wont fit.
Your old 80gb hdd should fit but you maybe missing the bracket to hold it in the correct place.
Have a look here for more info.

  • Ps3 super slim exchange

    I bought a Ps3 super slim for Christmas but it keeps freezing. Can I exchange of for the ps3 slim instead. It has not been 30 days yet please help

    Hi MrxGameFreak,
    There's no reason your brand new PS3 should be locking up on you. Please don't hesitate to bring it back. As long as you're still within the 30 day return period, you're welcome to swap it out with anything you'd like.
    Cheers,

  • GTA V Can't Install On PS3 Super Slim.

    I have a 12GB PS3 super slim console and I just bought GTA 5 on PS3 and it says that I do not have enough memory and it forced to quit. It says I need another 6022MB memory space in order to play GTA 5. So I looked on the internet to find out about how you can upgrade your 12GB console to a 500GB hard drive so I can play GTA 5 but its REALLY COMPLICATED and you need so many components to install it. You need like 3 things which include a 500GB hard drive, a mounting bracket, and a 16GB usb flash drive. And they might be quite expensive and even if you buy it you might not be able to install it yourself and all that money paid for it would be a waste. So yeah its tricky stuff.

    The best thing would be to upgrade the HDD a future update from Rockstar could block out 12GB users entirely. 
    This is some good advice. As you can see the process is pretty simple.
    In the mean time if you want it to install the game update you will have to delete any videos and Game Data to clear all the space on your console.

  • How can I turn off or disable/remove firefox 36 so that my browser only uses adobe flash?

    When I'm completing online training for my airline work, I get a warning from their site detecting that it is running firefox 36 instead of adobe flash and I can't proceed to launch the window which will work just fine outside of firefox. Is there a way I can disable firefox 36 so that it doesn't use the mozilla version but only uses adobe flash player to launch the app?

    I think it would be easiest to load your training in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. You don't need to remove Firefox to do that. You might need to change your default browser from Firefox to Internet Explorer. Here's how:

  • PS3 slim or PS3 super slim?

    Hi everyone, I'm debating on which ps3 i should buy...the slim or super slim? what do you guys think?

    Slim would be the better choice.
    The super slim you have to make sure the disc is snapped on otherwise it will scratch or even break inside.
    Second reason is the lens is exposed to dust more easily increasing the chance of it breaking down.
    Upside of a super slim its quieter and the bundle deals are enticing but other than that worth choosing it over a regular slim

  • Charging iphone with ps3 super slim

    Will it cause any problems with my iphone to charge it with the god of war super slim ps3

    Use your computer to charge the phone if you're unsure...
    But for clarification, the iPhone will charge on any USB standard power (5V 1A)
    Apple won't support it if your phone erupts into a ball of fire unless you were using their charger.
    Also, remember this thing called time zones, the volunteers and other assorted experts on here are either working, sleeping or, studying. Be paitient to get answers.

  • Qosmio G30 (PQG32L) - Can only use 3.25GB memory on Windows 7 64bit

    My Qosmio G30 (PQG32L) found 4GB of memory but only 3.25GB usable memory. I upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit but it not help.
    BIOS reports 4GB RAM.
    OS Windows 7 64 bit
    Anyone can enable Qosmio G30 usable memory to 4GB?

    Hmm I doubt that Toshiba would update the BIOS on all old models with Chipsets that are limited to 3.2GB, especially considering that only 750MB is lost.
    I guess if the laptop supported 8GB max RAM, Toshiba would modify the BIOS to support 64bit OS's.

  • PS3 Super Slim Laser + Deck Replacement Help

    Can someone please help me?I have a PS3 12gb CECH-4203A model and I believe the laser is about to die on me.Can anyone please tell me what laser and deck model I need to find to repair it please? Many Thanks

    You will need to cross reference your model number with the part number, or disassemble the bd-drive to find the part number.
    In this case, eBay is your friend.
    WARNING: the ps3 contains no user-serviceable parts.

  • Help, new Droid 2, won't get 3g only 1x with flashing blue triangle

    This is my 4th Droid 2, I like the phone and only go this new one after my last one got wet and had to be replaced.
    I activated the new phone and it won't move off of the 1x (my old Droid 2 that is my desperation phone because it has some issues has 3g).
    I spent 1.5 hours talking to a tech. who suggested I send the phone back as defective.  I did and order a new one from another company.  The same thing is happening, I still make and receive calls, I have internet; what I don't have is 3g and no idea what the problem is.

    Talked to someone again today, still insist it is the phone.  I've had enough with Verizon, if I can return this phone I will quickly move to straight talk!!!!!!!!!!!  I am tired of the "up sale" on everything no matter what I call about.  I was basically told that if I don't buy the phone from Verizon, then I was on my own.
    After 10 years you would think they would try to help a loyal customer.

  • I just bought a new iMac and now I am trying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don't have a Mini DisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don't have. Is there any way to connect this two mac's anyway??

    I just bought a new iMac and now I amtrying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don’t have a MiniDisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don’t have. Isthere any way to connect this two mac’s anyway??

    Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system.  10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
    And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines.  Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist.  There are no Firewire to USB cables.

  • Airport Extreme dual-band 802.11n Wi-Fi & new XBOX 360 Slim

    I'm having issues getting my new XBOX 360 Slim to connect to my dual-band Airport Extreme when using wireless n. I can get it to connect with n but my connection speed on the 360 drops to 1 or 2 mbps, even though the signal remains strong. I can see the speed drop of the 360 using Airport Utility on my laptop. All other devices on the network are fine. When I switch the 2.4 GHz band on the AE to b/g only, then the connection speed on the 360 shoots up to 54 mbps. That of course neuters the rest of my wireless n devices to g speed since most connect to the 2.4 GHz band due to the limited distance of the 5 GHz band.
    Short of finding a solution, my next step is to try a different router brand. I'd rather stick with Apple, but have had more issues with 2 AE models than all of my other Apple hardware combined.

    I had a three year old XBOX 360 before with a newer external n adapter. I use the 360 to do a lot of streaming video from my computers so the n definitely came in handy. The external n adapter worked great with the AE. Unfortunately that 360 died so I bought one of the new ones as a replacement. They must be using different hardware for their new internal n adapter than their previous external n adapter.
    My first step will be exchanging the new 360 tonight to see if it is isolated to just that machine. If it isn't, I'm going to try a new Logitech router just to see if that makes a difference.
    Again, I can maintain a connection to n just fine with the AE, but the speed is dismal. In g the speed and connection are just fine.
    I have not tried disabling encryption simply because I wouldn't run my router without it.

  • Can a new Apple Super Drive be connected to a Powerbook Pro using a USB to Thunderbolt adaptor?

    Can a new Apple Super Drive be connected to a Powerbook Pro using a USB to Thunderbolt adaptor?

    Assuming you mean a Mac Book Pro (Powerbooks haven't been sold for almost 10 years, and a Thunderbolt port would only be present in the MB Pro) I have a couple of observations
    I don't believe there is such a thing as a thunderbolt Super drive. SuperDrives are USB.
    Converting a USB super drive to use thunderbolt interface will be an expensive ordeal. Almost as expensive as the super drive itself. And i doubt the interface would support the Superdrive anyway. i.e the Mac is not expecting an optical drive through the TB interface.
    There's no benefit in doing it.  Speedwise, you would still be limited to the USB speeds. And port usage wise, it would be a waste of a powerful port.
    Any reason you can't use a USB port?

  • New iMac new usb super drive but disc keep ejecting

    I am a new user of a new imac, installed new usb super drive but disc keeps ejecting. 

    A reply to similar question (Q & As , in product page Apple Store) says:
    "...dissable the internal reader hardware from devices setup. Then plug the external usb superdrive and that's it."  Answered by Enrique T from Lima Oct  25 2013.
    If you can locate an external Apple USB 'Air" superdrive for earlier model MacBook Air, that should work. The newer one for the Air is the same as for iMac, now.
    You may be able to use other brands of external USB optical drive with your older intel-based iMac, as some of them function capably. A few should also be able to see system discs or other bootable utilities on DVD.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Macbook with new WD Blue Scorpion 320 gb -harddisk stuck at boot-screen

    I recently bought a new WD Blue Scorpion 320 gb drive (WD320BPVT) to replace the original 120 gb harddisk in my white macbook from 2008 (
    MacBook3,1)
    The replacement went well. I GUID-formatted the drive which was immediately recognized by the computer, and used time-machine to transfer the latest backup. All of this was done from the Install-DVD, but when I tried to boot the computer from the harddisk, it kept getting stuck at the Apple-bootup logo. I've tried reformatting the drive, but it doesn't seem to work. Has anybody had similar issues, and in that case, how did you fix it?

    OK. When you say it doesn't work does that mean you cannot see the drive in Disk Utility? Of course that means you need to boot from another drive such as your external backup. If you happen to have a Snow Leopard DVD to boot your computer then you could try with that. But there isn't much you can do if you don't have another bootable drive in an external enclosure or other form of hookup like a universal drive adaptor.
    Your model is not new enough to use Internet Recovery. I don't know what more to offer. You cannot even verify that the new HDD is OK by putting it in an external enclosure.
