I upped my 80GB PS3 to 160GB. I would have ugraded a 2nd time to a 250GB but it is no longer possible to properly back up the HDD because some game data or game save data is copyright protected. I have PS+ which means all my save data is stored in the cloud, but there are other user accounts on the PS3 which do not get cloud save.

Now that I am more onto the 8th gen it isn;t so much of an issue, but with only 160GB I do have to manage the digital content a lot.

I mostly plan to buy physical this gen, which means it's a non issue uninstalling game data with PS4 making it possible to start playing a game after just a proportion of the game is installed. SO I think I should be able to manage with the 500GB. No doubt I will have to uninstall PSN+ content from time to time, but I think once I've finished with a PSN+ game I doubt I'll ever want to re-download it after deleting it off my HDD.

Nextgen I hope to go 100% streaming, assuming new release games will be available for streaming fairly soon after their physical and download releases.
