About LinkBacksHi There,
I have a 80gb ps3 console, and I am looking into getting more space on it for personal reasons
I was wondering, if i should get an HDD or just a USB?
What are the best offers going?
also which is the most compatible with the 80gb ps3?
(for ps3 lifetime)
any help appreciated, thank you.
+Ameen

01-25-2011,06:47 AMyou will need a bigger hard drive. mine used to be an 80gb but i recently upgraded to 500gb. i recommend western digital all the way like. it only cost me £44.99 which is spot on in my opinion.
also make sure its only a 5400rpm not a 7200rpm as it can overheat ur playstation and it only speeds it up like a few milliseconds lol

01-25-2011,07:44 AMany 2.5in/9.5mm SATA laptop hard drive should work, western digital is a popular choice, best to go with internal because there's better game compatibility.

01-25-2011,08:05 AMHdd is much cheaper than USB by about 20 bucks from where I live. I've been thinking of upgrading my 80gb to 320 or 500 gb. My real problem is whether I should order online or pick one up at best buy. I just don't like to pay the 7 dollar shipping fee when I can just drive there which us only like 3-4 miles away from my house.

01-25-2011,08:33 AMI've got both. Internal and external.
No speed difference or any benefit between the two i can tell.
Internals are a bit cheaper but then again many people have a spare hd they could convert into usb anyhow.

01-25-2011,08:50 AMDo PS3 system have a limit foir HDD size? i was looking into 1TB internal 2.5 ..
At the moment I have CFW waninkoko, and a couple of legit backup on my HDD ( seriously, my own discs for the sake of speed loading ........
ok, 2 of them are not mine.... 
but anyways.. )..
I have a bunch of PSN games and DLC...
Now, how can I safely upgrade without loosing those ??? I never switched discs before, so I don't know what is waiting for me, and what is the procesure with disc upgrade and and CFW..do I revert to OFW and then switch?? then install 3.55 OFW, recover my PSN games and just then Waninkoko again?
