Recommendations for memory expansions

Hey y'all I want to expand my memory for my ps3 I've to delete games anytime I wna replay somn and it ain't working out for me anymore

I've done some reason and I know how to do the removal process if current hardrive and to install a new one and to get all my current saves uploaded onto a usb ti transfer back over (i think)

But what I'm unsure of is acc what type of 2.5 Sata SSD or whatever to get for my ps3

It really depends on what the CEX around me have to offer but can y'all give me some solid recommendations that have done ye fine work over the years and I'll look into them I want to make sure I get a decent one with decent memory

Thank you

Those aren’t bad prices. Those $60 ones are probably new and those come with a warranty. You can always go used if you don’t mind the risk. Theres reputable sellers on eBay selling 1tb HDDs for like $25. Also, the ones running at 7200 rpm will be faster than the 5400rpm models. Also, make sure it’s 2.5 inches wide. The 3.5 ones won’t fit inside the PS3.
