PS3 To Support 400GB Blu-Ray Discs

 

According to a post over at PS3 Fanboy, the 400GB Blu-ray discs that were pioneered by Pioneer earlier this year are compatible with all existing Blu-ray drives - including the PlayStation 3.

Pioneer unveiled the 16-layer Blu-ray discs earlier this year, and even at that time, there was speculation that the existing Blu-ray drives would be able to handle the extra layers.

Though the discs likely won’t be consumer-ready until 2010, which is really not that far away, this definitely causes my mind to race with ideas. To put it into perspective, one 400GB Blu-ray would hold at least 40 times the size of the average Xbox 360 game. Further to this, Pioneer plans to expand the capacity to 1TB in 2013.

That’s a lot of storage!
