PS3 Hard Drive Recommendations

[AfricanTech]

Anyone have a recommendation for PS3 Hard Drive Upgrade?

Want to upgrade to the largest available drive that I can source in Cape Town.

All suggestions welcomed.

Cheers

PS: Staying on 3.55 until upgrade is done

The biggest 2.5" drives are 1TB and available from Samsung, WD & Toshiba.

Thanks all - I decided to go with a 500gig external drive - the 1TB are too expensive

i get the impression that if you upgrade to 3.56 you cant upgrade the HDD anymore???

Would just like to add that the new 2.5" SATA II 1TB hard drives are too big for the PS3

The 1tb drive is thicker than the standard drives you get in laptops or in external jobbies

You can upgrade, but there were issues with 3.56 when it was initially released. Now allegedly resolved.
