Biggest hard drive for ps3?

What is the biggest hard drive that will work with the ps3. I know it has to be a notebook 2.5 sata drive. So far the biggest i can find is 320gb. Is anything bigger out there, or coming out soon cuz then i will wait. Also what is the best quality name brand of hard drive that will work and will the ps3 spin a 7200rpm hard drive at 7200rpm or is it programmed to only run at 5400 rpm. Could you post a link of the best one or give me the name brand and model if you have time.

thank in advance

Hmm good to know that a 1 Terabyte drive would work, i have all my videos music and movies on my ps3. gives me more to do with remote play and my ps3.... Speaking of which does anyone know how to reduce or stop the skipping with remote play my psp does it alot.

I got a 500gb but its an external and it is simple as plug and play I never had to mess with my 60 or nothing and it was 100$ at best buy so I don't really see the reason of a big internal when you have to format and copy everything and possibly break or screw something up. Easy as pie.DeftonesRule

You can't save certain content to the external.

That is why you copy everything you can to the external like music, movies, game data, anything you can that way all the space even if you have a 40gb system will be free for the stuff you can't copy over.

Game installs can't be saved to an external and over time those larger installs will eat 40GB up. PSN Videos are also locked to internal.

^Did format your 320 Gb to FAT32 as well?
