40 gig playstation 3 with 2 controllers, HD cables, Wired headset and Call of Duty 5 World at War. Great condition, always kept inside enclosed tv stand. I have used this mostly for watching DVD's, and not playing games. $300[Edited on June 26, 2009 at 9:16 AM. Reason : $]

I will give you 200 for it since it doesn't have the backwards compatibility and its the older version with the smaller hard drive.

The smaller hard drive doesn't really mean shit. You can pick up any cheap laptop IDE drive and replace it with the turns of a few screws. I've got a 160-GB Seagate in mine. I'd stick with 5,400-RPM drives if I were you, since that's what the console is engineered to use, but it's really the simplest mod you could hope to do on a home console.

the ps3 uses 2.5" SATA drives, not IDE. and 7200 rpm works better but they get pricey.

this is true. though I'm not huge on modding. 40 gigs is probably ample for anything. but it is the older smaller model. like the 80 gig right now is 400 new. with a game i think.

Do you just slap it in there? Anything you have to do to prep the new HD?
6/26/2009 10:55:46 AM
just a partition. the ps3 will do the rest.

My mistake, don't know why I typed IDE.Yeah, you just slap the new drive in there. I used the PS3's built-in backup function to save my data to an external drive, then I swapped out the hard drives, formatted the new one using the PS3's formatting tool, and restored my back-up from the external. Easy peasy.
