I wouldn't call an upgrade a viable option for most people who are too afraid to even open up a PC case, so even fewer people would dare to install a bigger HDD on their PS3 and most people wouldn't have the first clue as to how they would back up all the info on the HDD.

 

Replacing the PS3's HDD is significantly easier than replacing any PC component.  I believe the steps are even outlined in the manual.


You realize I worked tech support as recently as 2007 and received calls to the tune of "I broke my PC's cup holder" turned out to be the DVD drive.. and "where do I plug the power cable in the back of my PC?" I seriously wish I could tell you I was fibbing... people are RETARDED.

things are color coded and only fit into one socket and they STILL mess up.

On the upgrading your Hard drive, are games and paid for DLC locked onto your HDD or can you transfer them? I'm not sure if PS3 is like the Wii in the regard that the content is memorized by your system or like the 360 where they have to do it for you. Though now you can fix it and re-issue the rights for your 360 over your network though only 1 time per year..
