I just checked and I have 11gb left on my PS3's 40gb hard drive so i'm thinking of buying a new hard drive something at least 100gb. Is there a specific one i need to get like size or are they all the same?

Needs to be a SATA Hard drive I think, I'll dig out a guide for you, but look at the guide kk posted.

Any 2.5 inch SATA drive will do (laptop drive) 5400rpm is best as it is the ps3 drive's speed
