HDD Upgrade for my PS3 - Blu-ray Forum

shadowmoon · 04-30-2007, 04:56 AM

As stated in one of my previous threads, I've used up about 35GB worth of space on my PS3 already. So now Im looking for an upgrade. Did some research on newegg and I narrowed down the few listed below:

7200 RPM Drives:

SATA 3.0GB/s:

16MB Cache Drives:

Any suggestions, Pro/Con between them, or owner experience?

So does the PS3 have a format command if the disc is totally blank? Probably a stupid question, but just checking...

I had some of the same questions, do all those hard drives work with the PS3? actually I'm just wondering about the 160gb.

yup

Good prices there too. I just bought a 120 Gig WD for the PS3 at the same price at Micro Center.
