For those following the PS3 Hyperdrive chronicles, Team Xecuter has just released some updates on their work in progress. First and foremost, they've now finished the design for their product and have revealed pics of a test machine. Observe:

PS3 Hyperdrive - Image 1 PS3 Hyperdrive - Image 2 


To recap, the PS3 Hyperdrive will allow you to connect an HDD - SATA supported, IDE still being tested - by a simple plug-and-play system. It can also plug into your PC via USB, thus making file transfer that much easier. As far as an updated list of features goes, check it out:
  • Supports 2.5" and 3.5" SATA HDD (Also working on built in IDE support)
  • Switch for SATA HDD (2.5"/3.5") w/ LED
  • Switch for select output interface for PC (SATA or USB) w/ LED
  • Special SATA female (Hyperdrive) to Male (PS3) connector with custom plug-lock design, easy install and just plug and lock.
  • Release lock button for disconnecting Hyperdrive with PS3
  • Molex power source input.
  • Easy to install HDD inside the Hyperdrive.
  • Built-in cooling fan.
Still no word when it'll be available though. But the team explained that despite being a bit slow on the development, they "just want to get things done right without having to address problems later down the road." Fair enough. For now, this update is very much welcome. Cheers to the team, and godspeed!

Are they doing this with Sony's consent? I am always a bit cautious when it comes to third party peripherals.

I'm pro-sony as well but sometimes 3rd party pheripherals are better that original. I'll buy it anyways...I mean if it works.

No, it won't. Unless you count ROMs of OTHER systems (not PS3) under linux

pretty soon you'll be able to download HD movies from their online store and those will eat up space pretty quickly...

Team Xecuter is a very solid company that has been providing reliable hardware for quite some time. I have purchased many items from them and have yet to be disappointed.

Actually, kinda reminds me of the side-car style add-ons for the Amiga500 computers back in the late '80s and early '90s. As long as you don't plan on keeping your PS3 on it's side, it doesn't look that bad. I kinda like the matching style of it.
