Looking for a HDD for a PS3

[HCHecxz]

Anyone know any good deals online or in store for a compatible Hard Drive that will work for a 80GB Fat (MGS4 Ed.) PS3 system. Prefer a 500GB HDD (since I think that's the max it can hold). Any info would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

newegg had good prices if they don't have a deal. I couldn't find a deal when I was looking so ended up getting a OEM drive from Amazon (no packaging)

I have a TB in my fat PS3. Got it for about 50-60. Best investment ever.

Got it from Newegg.

What type of HDD should I be ordering on this, and which ones are safe on my 80GB Fat PS3?

Not thread hijacking but also curious in upgrading my PS3's hard drive. Only difference is I have a 160 slim.
Anyone who could point me in the direction of some info it'd be appreciated.

The PS3 uses laptop SATA drives. To be safe, you want to get one that has a height of 9.5mm. I know for sure that the Phat PS3 models can only use 9.5mm but I can't speak for the slim models. I have this 1tb drive in my PS3 since September, still going strong:

I just upgraded my 250 slim to a 500GB HDD

@ HCHecxz I don't really know how much I want for it

Have this-> WD scorpio 5400 rpm laptop drive (320gb). Asking $30 shipped (amazon gc or paypal).
It was in my old fat before I removed it to trade it into GS. Never had any problems.
