Honestly, just go within your budget. Any will do for performance because it's already superior to the HD in the PS3. Don't go too crazy for size unless you need it for other games or price because who knows; we might get a port.
I have a PNY and it works perfectly fine. I get almost no lag and always load in and get halfway to a point before my teammates spawn. Also when there is a FR drop (which happens rarely) it's not quite as crippling.

Just make sure that if you get one on the lower side (under 100gb) you keep your PSN mailbox clean otherwise your system will be slower once you get within 75% max capacity. (Same concept as a PC if your HD gets too full)
Also, on the plus side, if Dust leaves the PS3 or your system has a power failure, you can always use that SSD as external storage for your PC

I'm sure you've researched at least somewhat; but to help you from accidentally getting the wrong size of the physical hardware itself, it's a 2.5'' SATA

Usually the first two weeks after hotfixes are brutal, figured I'd give the community time to calm down before I rejoin the ranks and the great grind for success.

Upgrading hardware for performance isn't cheating, it's what any SMART person would do to enhance a legacy system for more optimal experience.
Unfortunately SSDs can only fix some of the issues that are caused by the limited technology of the PS3 in comparison to next gen consoles and PCs.
What you're saying is like saying "oh you broke your controller? you don't need a new one, just power on your machine and stare at your accounts."
There's this thing called a hardware issue with any type of computing device so some people need to replace parts. Why do you think Sony made it so easy to take the HD out and replace it? Because it's the one piece of the puzzle that is most likely to fail.

I played Battlefield 3 on mine which has a hell of a lot more going on in it than dust and never had a problem with the game. Seems Dust is the problem. I'll never upgrade this thing for one game even though this is about the only one I play LOL. I have a ps4 and waiting patiently for Fallout 4.
Some people have a PS3 only for playing Dust, therein they want the best possible experience that they can get.
The issue of Dust being a problem is and isn't true. Part of it has to do with the amount of content and a regular hard drive isn't really fast enough to pull the data and load that data in comparison to an SSD.
The Dust/PS3 issue is two sides of the same coin, depends on how you look at it. You can either say that the PS3 isn't good enough to handle Dust, or that Dust is too complicated for the PS3. Either way, both arguments are correct but your position of Dust being amazing vs PS3 console is old and outdated is where your viewpoint actually lies

I have a PS slim (later model) and it took minutes to swap out the drives. It was a bit longer to build the system files and transfer everything back from the portable HDD.
It was totally worth it. Everything loads much faster, from the PS3 initial start up to any game I play. no ill just yank it out put the new one in and redownload dust this ps3 is only for dust it only has files on dust so i dont need to backup anything
Don't backup the system, but you will need a Flash Drive. To download this.
Make a folder titled PS3 <-- exactly like that
Then another folder inside of that called UPDATE <---- also exactly like that
Put the download file in the UPDATE folder and once you pop that SSD in, plug your Flash Drive in and power on the system to install the PSN operating system.

You have to install the operating system. Basically PSN OS is just like Windows/iOS/Linux in that it is the whole architecture to even do anything.
Have you ever replaced your PS3's HD before? If so, did you buy one specifically for a PS3 that came preloaded with the OS.

Why does it run fine and Dust doesn't? I think Battlefield is more complex even down to the graphics.
Not necessarily, if you look at battlefield maps they are a set size, where as Dusts maps go on and on and you can see other maps in the distance.
Then if you look at the amount of dropsuits/weapons/modules/vehicles and all of their variations (that are completely unnecessary) there is more content in Dust BY FAR as opposed to Battlefield. (Which is exactly what I meant when I said above that there is far more CONTENT in Dust)

Modded controllers don't actually help your gun game, they just increase fire-rate of semi and burst automatic weapons. They don't fix performance issues. Conversely, SSDs fix performance issues such as lag or in some cases frame rate (where applicable to drops from system performance/read issues from old hard drives)
SSDs, believe it or not, will eventually be incorporated into any computing machine that uses one because it is an optimized design in comparison to the magnetic Hard Drives that were developed back in 1956. Will it take a few more years for that to happen? Absolutely, however now you see that some machines come with SSDs already and usually the price of that machine is much higher than one with a simple HDD.
Its the same concept as choosing between a standard graphics card vs a graphics card with a GPU. The GPU is more optimized for performance.

SSDs have been standard in gaming pc's for a couple of years now. The only 'lag' an SSD fixes on Dust is framerate drops. Also what on earth is a graphics card without a GPU? That's like, the most important part of a graphics card.
That is my point exactly. Everything in a PS3 is legacy (or moving toward that way)
Though, no SSDs do not come standard in any new machine. HDD is still standard but you have the option to pay a little extra for that SSD.
As far as no GPU vs GPU goes, someone with no knowledge trying to buy or build a PC may or may not realize how important GPUs are.
