Upgraded Ps3

500GB hdd + playTV = win!

I didn't realise ANY idiot could upgrade their PS3 until last night so I grabbed a new HDD today and am loving it!

It's funny cause there is no difference between the Slim 120GB and the 250GB.. but it's $100 difference.. And yet you can get a new 500GB HDD for less than $100

PS3 Slim 500GB FTW

i had wondered about this. i'd had a very quick look around and hadn't really been able to find any bigger hard drives

marc.. go to msy.. all you need is a standard 2.5" HDD.. they stock 500GB for around 80$ i think.. they have a website

www.msy.com.au

then just d/l the firmware for the ps3 and install off USB.. done..

Personally I got the 120gb model and i've no where near filled it up with stuff, I just stream it all from my PC over the network.

By the way you guys having the same avatar makes skimming through these posts difficult i'm looking at you Marc

www.umart.com.au is another place for cheap 2.5" HDD's =D

yeah i looked on there. a mate of mine always links me to stuff on umart, so i asked him for the site (couldn't remember it). similar price on there as to on msy.

since i'm not getting one till gt5 comes out, i'm just going to see what bundles are around at the time. i have seen some good priced play tv + remote + console bundles around lately and if it is the cheapest way to go then i will get that. but it just depends on whether they bundle gt5 with a console and what price it is.

I have a 40GB phat PS3 that I upgraded to 320GB a couple of years ago. Was a much needed upgrade since I treat the PS3 as a media centre.

Best thing about it is that they designed the PS3 to be easily upgraded by just about anyone with half a brain.

i've got the original 60gb console and its epic i love being able to still play gt4 along with all the other extras it had.

i run a media server from my pc anyway so i use bugger all ps3 hdd space, still using the original drive. love it.

it's the big plus of the PS3 vs 360. PC Case Gear are also good for hard disks, fkn fast shipping too (Melb to Mildura in less than 24 hours)

Yeah, this is another thing that the ps3 has over the 360
