Japan's Totally Real 750GB-Powered PS3

This is not for sale, I repeat, this is not for sale. Japan's T-ZONE.PC DIY SHOP (their caps and wacky punctuation, not mine) has outfitted a PS3 with external HDD for funnsies. The shop is rather famous for modding game consoles and putting them on display. This go round aimed to prove that it was possible to install large HDDs. With the demo, mirroring was do-able but data stripping wasn't. Just know: This sort of modding isn't recommended by the manufacture or even the store at that! (When is it?) Anyway, hit the jump for a look at the Frankenconsole.

Wow. That's kinda ugly.

Lots of HDD Space [Akiba 2 Go, Thanks Sakura!]
