ps3 40 gb quick question.

i have a 40 gb ps3, got it recently and now some of my friends are telling me that the 40 gb ps3's are somewhat defected and have a problem similar to the 360's rrod. i cant take my friends seriously because none has ps3 all have 360's. but i am little worried is there an issue in the 40 gb ps3's or is this some BS fanboys invented.

ive had my 40gb PS3 for 15 months or something now...havent had an issue with it. I don't game on it at all, but i use it often to watch DVD's....and never had issues with the disc drive.

all ps3 can get the ylod

Eventhough all the Ps3's may get a YLOD, i heard that the 60 and 20 gb versions are the ones that break often.. I also own a 40 gb PS3 and i have some kind of good news, it is said the the 40 gb PS3 came with a chipset that reduces the power cosumption. That being said, i guess it's fair enough to conclude that the chances for a YLOD on the 40 gb PS3 are somehow diminished, it may occurs who knows? but this is what the 40 gb PS3 is all about :) go tell your friend about that!!!!

I hope it never happens to mine.

i never thought a PS3 could break down...unless if like you did something to break it lol

ha no its the 80gb and the 60gb

the 40's have nothin wrng with them what soever
