pretty strict requirements. All the usual stuff first, must be compatible with sata drives. must have at least usb2.0/firewire ect. Importantly though, it needs to look the part next to my ps3 and stand up on end if possible. ickle blue lights would be nice:p


Anybody have any suggestions for me?

so far, my list of possibles inclused two - the silverstone sst-ms04 and the Icy Box IB-351-StUS-B, neither of which are perfect lol

Mr. Miller, what is unsatisfactory about the two you mentioned. Knowing these we can know which areas need to improve.

EDIT: How about a Vantec NexStar-3 NST-360SU-BK? It's black, has what appears to be blue lights, USB connectivity, and stands on end. It lacks FireWire but makes up for it by supporting eSATA which is a heck of a lot quicker.

nothings really wrong, they just dont match the ps3 as well as i'd like. it's just me being picky:p that vantec looks interesting though, seems to tick all the boxes:)

hp7979 i did consider that icybox model, but the exterior looks to be a matt black finish? i need shiny black lol
 
ok update time. I ended up ordering the nexstar-3 that billy suggested, and a great suggestion it was!
