Obviously things like this get dated quick. As of 8/11 they have 1TB 2.5″ 9.5mm drives that physically fit/format/work just fine. Just expect spending 40-50 hours backing up/restoring that much (upgraded from 750gb to 1 TB). Since the ps3 uses UFS2 in theory it can use a billion TB hdd (enough to copy the internet a few dozen times), tho it will be obsolete by the time a 2.5″ that size hits the market. Plus I wouldn’t want to wait 300 million years to back that up.

actually this is wrong, it used SATA-II hard drives up to 500gb, not SATA150 up to 250gb

I just noticed at the top of this recipe that you can use a 500GB external HDD. Could you use it to catalog upconverted DVDs on and then play whenever ,like you do on the PSPs harddrive.Thanx Bryan
