If you're willing to shell out $30 more you could get a 1TB hard drive for $105. Both have the same integrated 8GB SSD.

1TB might be a little much for a PS3, I've got most of the digital games from over a year of PS+ installed on my 500gb drive and still have almost 100gb free space. But if you do invest in the 1TB drive, you can always put it in a laptop/PS4/etc in the future if you keep the original ps3 hard drive in a box somewhere

These are the drives that I have been looking at but I am not sure about the 5400RPM as I don't think that it will be quick enough if the files are not on the SSD portion.

Please let me know if this is not the case and I might invest.

I got the Seagate Momentus XT 750GB (8GB SSD) which works wonders for Dust.
Highly recommend it.

Would love this drive as it was a 7200rpm drive, but I believe that it is now discontinued and replaced with the above 1TB drive that is only 5400rpm.

ps4 is going to suck in the fact that ps+ is required for online multiplayer.

what is the WORLD COMING TOO!!!!!

a few years ago sony was intent on keeping the free multiplayer. it should stay that way.. but now its changed and made a turn for the worse.

If the game is free to play then you will not need PS+ to play multiplayer. If it is a paid game then PS+ is required. Sony has confirmed this before the PS4 was released

Sony has confirmed this before the PS4 was released that is the problem i have with it...the subscription just being there required to play online. sure it doesnt effect f2p games. but its likely going to affect a game like destiny.. so not only will u have to pay around 60$ just to get hold of the game. u r also required to pay a subscription to play the game u just paid 60$ for.. this needs to be avoided at all costs in my opinion. which is obviously why the ps4 will suck..get rid of that ridiculous pay wall and ps4 wont suck..
