Consumers this week began citing a new software update for Sony Corp.’s Playstation 3 as a cause for an inability to upgrade their console hard drive.
In a multi-page thread from the Playstation.com Message Boards, users say the installation of the new firmware via a USB thumb drive relays an error during the process.
Sony in July released System Software Update 3.41 for the PS3 to add Playstation Store recommendations.
The company has not made an official comment on the firmware or hard drive upgrade matter.
The update adds a ‘You May Like’ division on the right-hand side when users browse games and videos.
In addition, the section will list additional items based on Playstation Store purchases.
Finally, Sony will release a PSP firmware update v6.31 to add software stability to select titles.
The PS3 is sold in a 120GB SKU at $299.99, 250GB SKU at $349.99.
In addition, a bundle that includes the PS3 250GB SKU, LittleBigPlanet and an HDMI cable sells at $349.99.
Sony in Sept. will begin sale of the Playstation Move controller.
The Playstation Move holds a retail price of $49.99 each.
