Did you know that PS3 uses regular laptop harddisk? That means we can easily upgrade its storage to a bigger one(think 250gb or more). The good news is Sony made it easy to upgrade or exchange the harddisk. Below are the steps for upgrading the harddisk



2.5 inch hard disk.

Attention - Upgrading PS3 storage may void your warranty.

Step 1

Save your data using the PS3's backup utility.




Step 2

Turn off and unplug the system. Remove the plastic HD side-panel, and remove the blue screw.




Step 3

Open the metal latch, move the drive tray to the right, and slide out the drive.




Step 4

Remove the four screws that hold the hard drive to the tray. Use a screwdriver that fits snugly because the screws are extremely tight and easy to strip.




Step 5

Swap in the new drive, and replace the screws.




Step 6

Put the drive tray back into the system and slide it into place. Then replace the blue screw and snap the side panel back onto the system.




Step 7

Turn on the console and let the system format the new drive. Then load up the PS3 backup utility to restore data from your external storage device back onto the PS3 hard drive.



Step 1 & 7 are optional if you dont have important data.
ENJOY!
