    WESTERN DIGITAL MY PASSPORT ESSENTIAL SE 1 TB USB 3.0 PORTABLE EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE - BLACK

    € 114,90

    http://www.pixmania.ie/ie/uk/7326111/art/western-digital/my-passport-essential-se.html

    Just found this in a few places. Was wondering:

    a) is it worthwhile to go for usb 3.0. I know its faster but will usb 2.0 be a thing of the past in a year or two
    b) anyone know the best place to get them. I used to go with komplett but after reading some comments online about their services, i was thinking of pixmania.
    c) should it work with a PS3 or standard usb TV?

    a) you will need a Mainboard that can deal with USB3.0 (for example AM3 Mainboards with 850 SB like MSI 870A-G54)

    b) is a very good price would get ith there

    c) PS3 can only read FAT32, which means filesizes of up to 2GB,if you want to stream BR media you can use PS3 Media Server, not sure about TV but i think they cant handle NTFS either.
