Default What do you do with your 60gig?

What do you do with all that memory? I guess I'm not seeing the potential of the PS3 in this aspect. Do you guys save music and movies to the hard drive?

Oh, and welcome to the forums.

Since many games have install options, I usually just keep my videos and music on an external drive. Though, when I move back home in August and get to have my PS3 hooked up to my theater system, I'll probably move at least my music to the PS3's hard drive, so I can finally use the PSP remote option to play my music.

Unless you're a hoarder, incredibly impatient or unable to multitask, 60GB is plenty.

well, with music, the games that do allow for in-game music, need it off the HDD and not from a media server stream.

I have about 5GB left.

10GB parted for another OS
5GB music
>1GB game saves
10GB demos, PSN games
25GB game installs
5GB Movies, Pictures, and Themes

I have a large music collection of old time cds and various other relaxing music, classical music etc..

Videos of various nature, gundam evolve and various other clips and videos from various things.

I keep a good amount of game demos, I never remove a demo unless I have beaten the game it goes to...

I usualy have to remove things, and I have crap loads of pictures of various sources and purposes..

All that memory?

60G is almost nothing. I have had mine a 8months and had to clean it out once already. Most games that are worth something take up 2-5G a pop.

My computer is 40G and I cant save anything to it anymore.

500G should be a minimum.

I have about 18 gigs left on my 60. It's filled with trailers and downloadable games and demos. I have bought a lot of those downloadable games and not all of them do I enjoy. But the ones I don't like my nieces and nephews love, so I keep them I am actually thinking that pretty soon, I will have to upgrade my hard drive, which is awesome that the ps3 can do. Actually, is there anything it can't do? Sorry, I just love my ps3 and I had to throw in that last statement. It's an all-in-one media monster. So to answer your question yes, it can fill up pretty fast!
