works flawlessly.

Would be an appropiate replacement lol :) Just lost my 4GB flash drive. Would be an appropiate replacement lol :) I have to agree about the comment in the article about getting the bloody HD drive out of the caddy.
Was a complete and utter freaking nightmare - I wrecked the heads on two of the four screws and I've got one of those really cool screwdrivers that are supposed to make it a doddle. To say I was mildly panicking is an understatement having spent 50 quid on a new 320GB HD.
In the end it was a mixture of brute force/deftness/willpower to get the sodding things out.
Kudos to Sony in the end though for allowing us to install a new HD at minimum cost. Agreed on the last point about the HD upgrade.
The 360 hdd's are certainly a massive money spinner for MS but if this is what keeps the 360 price down then for the majority it's worth it. Messing around with a PS3 sounds like a nightmare! My friends download demos and they take ages: by the time they arrive the need to play them has long gone just like the champagne that went with the New Years celebration in between!
With the data rates of USB 2.0 you're better off waiting for USB 3.0, which should be out soon.
5+hours of the day wasted! USB 2.0 and Vista sometime give me Kbps rates on my kingston 2GB stick!!! What a joke. Then again I suppose you can use the stick on that ridiculously good looking but impractical macbook air! ...that's if your apple doesn't crash and erase something...or better yet overheat and wipe ur HD not allowing u to turn it off (Apple's products forteit!) :shock: Ha! Even after that article, CVG fanboyism rears is ugly head.
Why are pics of the USB stick with a 360 controller? Come on chaps, get with it now! Very interesting article. If I had money I would buy that stick because I'm always copying large files from PC to PC, especially my programming files with quite large model files. Might increase the size of my HDD in my PS3 eventually, but I'm happy enough removing things for now. Well not my PSN games... nice one CVG, mention the PS3 nearly a dozen times then picture it with 360 controllers, genius!! My 8GB one was £15 from Play if you want something cheaper. maybe there intentions were to highlight the size of the flash drive only there comparing to the biggest joypad in the world just to make it look smaller than it is (oh and congrats to sony for gluing the screws in place even though the hdd is replaceable) Sounds really quite awesome, infact, you can use FLash drives to add to your PC's ram can't you?
I'm guessing with a 64gb flash drive, you'll be adding a fair chunk to it too :). (I'm not sure how much it equates to, or even how it works, but it'd still be awesome).
120 sheets is a little steep though, however, it doesn't sound totally unreasonable from the sounds of it. |
