It is normal with the ps3 slims. :) Happens, even with brand new consoles if you play long enough. The plastic gets hot or something I guess. Cant really tell. There was a thread here about it...

yeah dere is cracking sound....dat is because when u r running da ps3 the system heats up and xites the molecules , the molecules then gain heat energy and start moving in vibrational mode thus the system began to expand , the system expands to a certain limit depending on the temprature and the amount of heat liberated and then stops the expansion of the molecules while trying to expand the PS3 makes a CRAAAACK sound , similarly when the PS3 is turned off the system starts to lose the heat and den begans to contract while trying to contract the molecules fall to there original position and thus in doing so da same CRAAAAAACK is heard and dis proves dat the crack sound has no connection wid any sort paranormal or necromorphic activity in short no monster is tryin to come out of ur PS3 :hah:

Waninkoko V1 was reported to brick ps3, but V2 is working fine so far with fat and slim...no one reported bricking of consoles using Waninkoko V2...

MW2 doesn't run via backup. Not yet anyway, whether you're using 3.42JB, 3.55 Kmeaw, Waninkoko v2 etc.. Neither does Forgotten Sands or Fear 2, I posted that a while back btw.

get a Toshiba 320gb for about 4k or a 500gb for about 5k depending on your need :). remember to pick 5400 rpm drives, not 7200rpm drives as ps3 works best with 5400 rpm drives (minute speed difference and heat issue in some cases for fat consoles.)

Yes thanks but u didn't tell me the best place to get @ the cheapest price. Wese 320gb (aik jagah say pata kiya hai mere big bro nay) is more than 5k & 500gb for 6.5k, the same Toshiba brand. And yes I know those specs.

^ Any idea or suggestion about external HDD?
Click to expand...
get a full 500gb/1tb external 3.5' hdd if you dont plan to keep it on the go. Otherwise check the WD passport series. Those should be adequate for your use :)
