EXPIRED - Western Digital Scorpio WD3200BEVT 320GB 2.5" Internal SATA Hard Drive £49.99 @ Play.com - (Upgrade your PS3)
£49.99
5% off voucher works - 4% Quidco too = £45.59
This is a deal/hint thread for those that don't know about this, you can go upto 500GB(cheers Blackster) - but currently only one SATA hard drive(Samsung) can fit into the PS3 and costs nearly £90-£100.
I think this is a decent deal for a generous 320GBs - remember it ALWAYS has to be a 9.5mm 2.5" SATA drive to fit inside your PS3. Some handy links below too.....and......

How easy is it to stick all your xvids on this drive and use the media player to play them? ATM im streaming the little ones kids films over LAN but would sooner have them on HD and play direct to free up my server. Have DL'd a RedKawa proggy that is supposed to communicate with the PS3 but havent got round to installing coz the PS3 is only 40gig and i could only get a few films on it. With this id be able to store them all ! Also how far away are reasonably priced 500gig 2.5"ers ? Back to the OP though - although standard price this is good considering the 5% and quidco, imo better than other deals ive seen. Just highlight the video you are streaming and press the triangle button, then choose copy  |

I got the voucher to work for me after a try or two. £45.59 after voucher and Quidco I got PlayTV so my 60GB was literally full already - looking forward to mine coming  |
