    That would be perfect for your PS3.

    Just be VERY careful when taking out the screws, I wrung one of mine, but was able to get it out with a pliers.

    +1. Those screws are so incredibly tight and easy to sheer, pliers are your best option... or use a garden clippers.

    If your butter screws do get fecked then i had to use a hacksaw to make a flathead screwdriver work !

    After reading about Western Digital releasing a 1TB 2.5" drive, does anyone know if there's a limit on the amount of space a PS3 will address?

    I dont think there is a size limit (cant find anything about it on google). But the 1tb WD that is only being released now is going to be pretty expensive when it's first out. Get yourself a 500GB or 750GB. Thats loads.

    Bigger problem might be the fact the 1TB WD drive is 12.5mm thick, compared to standard 9.5mm. It might not slot into the PS3 properly.
