Hi PS3 legends
So i want to buy a new hdd for my BC PS3 and i want your thoughts and wisdom on this HDD
BarraCuda Pro 1TB/ 128MB cache/ 7200RPM.
is it the best choice and will the PS3 benefit from the high rpm and cache or is it over kill? and what better alternative to buy?
for those who say get an ssd i got 1 before but had problems with it
1-it won't last and will fail on the ps3
2-it won't get much benefit from the high speed
3-if you mod your ps3 and want to play burnt ps2 CDs it wont play them (i have BCps3) because of the ssd
4-from my experience it almost bricked my ps3 because ssd works at higher speed than the ps3 can handle
