Our hacker friends over a PS3scene got their mittens on a production sample of Team Xecuter's first foray into the wonderful world of PS3 modding. Their initial entry into the market isn't terribly exciting, but it is useful and functional.
"The Xecuter PS3 HDXT is a caddy type frame that plugs into the PS3 internally where the 2.5" Sata drive would normally slot. You then clip on the matching faceplate and bingo you now have a clean external Sata connection. No frills and no fuss. You can now add any hard drive you wish and connect it any way you wish. We have also designed a simple but cost effective Sata to IDE convertor."
At $20 for the adapter, this is a cheap and elegant solution to your future PS3 storage issues. Who is getting one?
