Question
I'm a bit of a tech head lol but I actually have a question. I just bought a 80gig ps3 and I'm wondering what is the biggest external harddrive I can buy that would be compadable with it. I'm hoping to get a terabyte because its only $100 so I want to ask before I make the purchase
Gday Noel,
There is no size limit to External Hard drives for PS3. (Knock yourselves
out on the Terabytes)
The internal can be swapped out with any 2.5 SATA laptop Hard drive the only thing that limits it is the physical size of the drive and getting it to fit. (Biggest I have seen is a 500 GB)
Hope this helps.
