Memory Sticks And Hard Drives
« on: October 29, 2005, 03:07:00 PM »

The possibilities of having a bigger space ... 4G Hard Drive for your PSP w/c is about $200US ... while the regular Memory Stick PRO Duo 2GB   cost about $250 US ...

Why bother with the 2G .. if you can get the 4G for $50 less ...

The cost of the a1G Memory Stick Pro Duo (Sony Brand) is only $99Canadian  .. even COSTCO (Sandisk Brand)

the possibilities just became endless ...

why bother? because the freaking 4gb is a monstrous calamity hanging off your psp.


portable <----- playstation

putting that on there makes it ridiculous.


how the hell is it going to fit in anything but a backpack?

It actually isn't that large...

It also includes a 2x battery, that goes on the other side of the PSP. SO you are getting a GREAT deal, and in truth, it actually makes the PSP more confortable to hold. Sure it is heavier, but it is also more comfortable.

The main reason memory sticks are more expensive is because they're flash based while the 4GB HD is micro drive based. Flash memory is way more expensive than hard drives for the same storage capacity.

read the whole thread .. and quite frankly, i'm gettin mix reviews about it ... i think it's pretty much given about the micro drive not having any power @ all - this the reason why theres another power supply that comes with it ... it needs more juice to run the date to the psp ...

but does anybody have any pictures holding the actual psp with the 4gig? i mean the pictures on the website is good but i'm looking more on what other users has *the ones who've already purchase it**

thanks for the awesome feedback guys!!
