Where can I get an external or internal hard drive for my ps3?

[MoltenKitten]

he doesnt want to replace the internal

after seeing all I have to do for external I might get a new internal. Problem would be file transfer.

see if this is good

250 seems like enough space. And assuming all I need to do is open my system and switch them out seems easier. Although that sight seems a little sketchy. Have you gotten something there before?

Any of those sites, though Amazon is probably the most likely one that your parents will be comfortable ordering from. $53 with free shipping is a good price for a drive like this

it is compatible but don't I need to change file types and make folders for it?

Nope, the instructions on the official guide I linked are the same no matter what drive it is. Just put it in the PS3 and install the system software using either a USB stick or a game disk which has an update file on it

Hard drives use usb, PS3s have usb ports. It will work.
Also, 250GB+ is ideal.

It's not a matter of will it work. I know it will work. I just want to make sure there are no extra steps other than popping it in the system.

good thing you edited the title otherwise i would not have clicked here
you can get an external hard drive for PS3s on any shopping site ever, you can also go to your local electronic entertainment store (or whatever it is called in freedomlandia) and buy it there, im sure theyll have it
