    Hey. I'm down to 15GB on my 60GB hard-drive that came with my original launch PlayStation 3 and I'm feeling the need to upgrade so I don't have to keep deleting game installs and demos. I'm looking for a fast, cheap, big (in GB, not size) internal hard-drive. However, I'm not to keen on the HDD purchase game, so can anybody help me out?

    Thanks! =D

    If you're keen on downloading and buying content from PSN, and storing videos/music, then I suggest you get a 250+ GB HDD. Besides the useful link that Roundlay has provided you with, here's my personal take on swapping the HDD. Watch the screws. No force, only love and memory where you place which screws. If you screw that up, you're a gonner.
