 I've been considering getting an SSD but I wasn't sure how much it would help. The most irritating part about battles was always that five or six second wait after the deployment counter hit 0 on that first spawn before you actually loaded in, while nearly everyone else on the team was already on the ground running. I've had an objective be hacked before I finally loaded in, even though I tap X to spawn in as soon as possible.
 
 If an SSD actually gets rid of that horrible delay I may just get one.

 I recently got one that I can put in my laptop if I quit dust, so it'll get good use

 Just had one laying around from one of my computer builds its a pny 240 gig. Since the ps3 is so old it cant fully make use of todays ssd's so the cheapest one for the storage size you want will work good.

 It's called "Hangup" if it originates from your system..... "Lag" is internet specific.
 There is no way a SSD will fix your internet.

 In general performance issues fall into one of two buckets; frame drops/visual latency as a result of system performance and lag as a result of network performance. Having a clean system (both from a physical and memory standpoint), new thermal compound and (perhaps) some auxiliary cooling will help the first. A good (wired) connection and port forwarding or a DMZ will help the second. There are a number of good threads that deal with optimizing performance. I've linked Arirana's below

 my issue is mainly overheating, sometimes it drops to single digit frames all by itself.
 
 an SSD won't fix all the problems, for most people, but will fix some problems, for some people.
 don't buy an expensive SSD either, half of the speed won't even count, nor will fancy features.

 Dovalis and Aramis are both correct with their posts. I just dont know what else to say other than I dont have studdering frame rates anymore, loading everthing is much quicker and there isnt noticable lag. But I do understand that as you both said are two different things. I cannot comment to performance in a pc though. If someone could get me into one I would like to try it with my setup.

 They're at a good price point now a 240 gig will set you back anywhere from $80 and up if on sale.

 The 850 evo is a top of the line ssd. Since the ps3 only uses sata1 any cheap ssd will work just as good. But for quality its one of the best.

 It worked for quite a while for me and still does for the most part. There are a few times when I still get performance issues.

The one I linked works on PS3 and and PC so you can switch it after you're done on ps3, also heard ps4 and xbone but this is just rumor I haven't tried it yet

 No it didn't... it not designed for that, but you knew that already.
 
 While it does increase rendering speeds, it won't fix the lag if there is lag. It clears things up more than you're used to! At first I thought the same thing, but once your mind and eyes adjust to playing with the ssd you'll see.
 
 While I am the first on the battlefield to spawn, I wouldn't dare spread false hope. The SSD is an improvement, but not the holy grail.

 It would definitly work on ps4 and xbox one.

 The last thing I wanted to do with this thread was to spread false hope. I apologize if it sounded that way!
 It made such a dramatic improvement for me that I wanted to share that with the community in the hope it might help someone else out. =ƒÿÇ

 I'm not saying it's perfect but I have yet to lose frame rates or even have to reset between pc's..I do not lag now but I do see others lag idk if that's the ssd or I've been lucky since hooking it up..it's really not nessecary to have one unless you do lots of PC I do 3-6 a day and don't feel like having 1fps because I bought the ultra slim ps3..also when I move on I will use the ssd on either my PC or ps4/xbone..it will get its use..but I think Arirana uses an 8gb ssd and says it works great..for dust you don't need a huge one but I'd go at least 120gb so you can use it afterwords..heard the 7200hdd's work good too, I don't have one so that's something you'd have too Google sometime..
 
 TLDR: the best players use ssd, it does not 100% fix dust but makes it far more playable, 7200 rpm hdd's might be good enough

 My only concern with the 7,200 rpm hard drives would be the extra heat they put out over the factory 5400.
 As far as what size to get, like you said depends on the person and their needs.
 I personally wont get any ssd smaller than a 240gig do to lifespan shortness in the smaller size drives.
 The good thing is prices are coming down.

 Putting SSD on 10 years old console you could play free to play game without lag...
 
 
 Makes
 no
 sense
 
 So,i assume you know that SSD TRIM doesn't work on consoles and your SSD will die much faster?

 That's why I purchased one with it's own built in garbage collection that isn't reliant on TRIM.

 Yes both of you are correct about the trim. The one I am using doesnt support its own trim but it was a spare that I had laying around. I do worry about its lifespan being shortened because of that but isnt Dust being ported to ps4 soon anyway...lol.
