Come to think of it, the limit may have been because of physical size - larger capacities are slightly larger to fit more platters/heads and the PS3 only has a certain sized slot. I think that's all rubbish though.

Looking forward to the results.

Hitachi made some taller 12mm drives that don't fit in any standard laptop/PS3 bay - they had an extra platter to bump the size. However others make large drives that are the standard form factor.
