Sony announces 80GB PS3...for Korea
Jun 19th 2007 4:42PM (Engadget)Upgrading the PS3's Hard Drive is very easy. Any SATA 150 2.5" drive will work. They recommend a 5400 RPM, 8MB Buffer on the drive. I put in a Seagate Momentus drive in which is the same model that comes in the PS3 (just at a larger capacity).
Faster drives may work, but they may cause extra heat the PS3 isnt designed to cool. Likewise, it has to be an SATA 150 drive. That is the connector on the back. Most 2.5" drives are ATA, which are pins. SATA-150 is like a card connector almost. And of course it needs to be a 2.5" as the 3.5" drives (Pc drives) wont fit.
Likewise, this does nothing with your Sony warrenty as this is an end user replaceable part. EB games told me that they didnt believe that it is end user replacable and said doing that would void their warrenty (I didnt have one, was just asking). But they didnt know as much about things as we do here, so that might be hit or miss depending on which store you are at.
I got this drive: http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.aspx?EDC=1029738
It's the same drive that comes in the PS3, just a larger capacity.
