Great drive for PS3 25 Oct 2010

By chesebrgr

Does what it says on the tin. Swapped HD in my PS3, I now have 465GB instead of 37GB. Very nice, and quieter than the stock HD too.

Wonderful HDD, really quiet. 7 Oct 2010

By Andrew

I bought this as a replacement for my PS3 as the WD I bought had stuttering issues. It was really easy to install (well I've done it half a dozen times now), and it is far quieter than my previous Hard Drives. Restoring my data was pretty quick compared to the other HDD. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase.

Doesn't work in my PS3! 7 Oct 2011

By Phil

I tried everything for this to work, I ended up getting a new ps3 slim! I have put this to one side as returning would be a nightmare after reading the returns policy! Be careful people.
