PS3 HDD upgrade trouble

Options

on ‎30-06-2012 11:42 PM

Hello everyone,

 

I purchased a 320gb Hitachi HDD for my ps3. Now when I start it up it says that I need to have a storage media connected to it with 4.20 or later. That's simple, so I downloaded the firmware onto my flashdrive and it said no applicable data found. I checked the folder structure it is PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP. The flashdrive is also formatted to FAT32. I tried with a new flashdrive and the problem still happens. Could anyone please help me? I just want to use this new HDD already. I don't know what else to do.

Just to check: the file is in the UPDATE folder not an actual folder called "PS3 UPDAT.PUP" correct?
