    I'm looking to upgrade my PS3's 60 GB HD to something with more capacity, I plan to load Ubuntu on it and I'm going to need the room as I only have 10 GB free as it is now. The cheapest one I have found is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148366 for 45 dollars, but I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a better bargain? Thanks

    unless you find one used or someone selling you prob will not find much better. hp just had 500gb drives for under 50$ but i think it was a mistake as they pulled it down

    I really wasn't sure what the market was for these drives, I'll check around to see if anyones selling them if not I'll just order from Newegg, thanks.
