So, I bought the 4 gig hard drive from Datel for $170. It works pretty good, I definately like the added save memory. The only thing that I really hate about it is the size. I have big hands and this thing gets in my way all the time! I have a friend with smaller hands and he says it doesn't bother him nearly as much. So, if you have big hands, try it before you buy it. I am thinking of getting rid of mine because it is way too bulky. Does anybody out there have any suggestions?

It does look a bit bulky. What is the most amount of storage I can get without the bulkiness of the 4 gig? I have a couple of the cards, and they just don't hold enough.

PlaySatation Portable - take that last part into consideration befor you add more features like this to it. I ask the question "can I still fit it into my pocket?".

What's the point if your hand held system gets so bulkey and huge that it's not longer portable, or you have to lug a backpack around with all its equipment. To me this seems like someone with a very expencive dog. The dog is tiny, but it needs a large satin pillow 150$, a gold leafed food bowl 500$, the doggie house 5000xj 1200$, expencive premium chow 80$, 16k Gold tag 4000$, Mr.Fancy pawz fluff brush 24$, ect...

And if it doesn't recieve all these things it just barks and sh*t's all over your expencive new carpets. Rolling Eyes

I was looking at PSP hardware storage, but it's not that I can't find any, but rather that I can't find the use of a gigantic sized hardware(for a PSP. What do you use the extra storage for? I guess I just don't have a lot of stuff Wink

Could Spaceman be French? Smile

In French the dollar sign goes at the end of the monetary sum...and also doesn't it make sense to say Fifty Dollars and not Dollars Fifty too Wink

Have you had any shock resistance issues? Problems with skipping when accessing the drive?

How about durability? If you PSP got jostled are you more concerned about the harddrive than the PSP or equally concerned.

Good to know; although the use for it on a DS is narrowed down, I'm sure that it'll sell equally as well.

Sure it will sell well, though I'm not sure why you would need such a large drive for the DS, maybe I'm missing something though Smile
