PS3 HD upgrade? 320gb 7200 RPM $55 AR ends soon

[wildnuts02]

this is a good deal on a Hitachi Travelstar SATA 2 HD at 7200 RPM. there may be issues with noise or heating so beware but for the most part i've heard good things about 7200 drives working in PS3s (performance increase w/minimal heat increase)

The price is confusing but if you add to cart it's $74.95 shipped. Then you can fill out the $20 rebate which ends today. $60 total.

I just shoved an Atari 5200 in my PS3, and now I can play Ballblazer. Unfortunately, I have to hold my DualShock3 vertically now. I tried to get a 7800 in there, but voided my warranty and overheated my Bluetooth Headset.

If anyone's up for Missile Command on PSN, let me know.

I went back to print out the rebate forms and the deal has been modified....again.

This now features a $20 "Instant Rebate" (no form to fill out), plus you can still send in the original $20 rebate (expires 03/28) for a final product cost of $49.99.

BUT and there's ALWAYS a BUT....free shipping is no longer listed on the page. Still a hell of a deal.

I went with Western Digital 500GB and then put my 60GB on eBay which sold for $30. So the WD 500GB Blue SATA 5400rpm was $109, came down to $79 after this eBay sale!! Can't say there is any loss of speed, storage increase is great, no noticeable difference in sound, just as quiet.

It says there is a 5-7 day fedex shipping for 0.00 dollars for me in checkout
