affected systems estimate:
Aftermarket HDDs, 500GB-1TB ~90%
Stock 500GB models ~8%
Stock 120GB models ~2%
Stock 1st-gen fat models ~ 0%
- josephlord 13y agoI initially read that as 90% of the aftermarket HDD systems were affected rather than 90% of the affected systems were those with aftermarket HDDs. These numbers come from looking at the problem reports on a forum.
- criley2 13y agoHeh, it's worth noting that the Forbes source for those "numbers" is a Redditor who is ballpark estimating based on user reports in a forum. Didn't realize we were in a time when Forbes sources were nearly unsourced Reddit comments. http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1gmrmx/do_not_update_your_ps3s_new_firmware_brick/calqjiq http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1gmrmx/do_not_update_...
- viraptor 13y agoAt the top, over the article: "Paul Tassi, Contributor". I think the official articles are written by "..., Forbes staff". There's not much distinction these days between the core and the affiliated people. (not that this is an excuse)
