    Pretty self-explanitory title. I'm thinking of getting a 500GB external HDD, but heard you can't save everything on there. Is that true and if so, what can't you save?
     
    Thanks.

    I don't know much about that, but you know you can always replace your PS3s harddrive with a bigger one, has to be SATA 2.5"... so like this one.

    Eh, really all you can store on it for PS3 is music, video, and most game saves.
     
    I don't recommend getting an external harddrive unless your going to use it for your PC as well.
