Forums - Sony Discussion - Hard Drive Upgrade

Hello experienced PS3 owners. I recently acquired a 60 gb ps3 (whoo backwards compatability) and within a month, have used up 30 gigs on only games. So the option to upgrade hard drives has become a neccesity.

I apologize if this has been asked before, but does anyone advise a specific hard drive to upgrade to? I'm looking for the 320 to 500 gig range. I read that one needs a 2.5 inch hard drive, new egg didn't seem to have many that fit that catagory (or maybe I wasn't searching correctly). Anyways, any advice?
