That's impressive to have a gen1 ps2 that still works. Mine went about 3 years ago with a blown vibration fuse.
If you can find a 40Gb PS3 for $70 or less than an 80GB unit, that would be the better buy since a 160GB drive would cost you about $70 anyways.
Unfortunately, the backwards compatible PS3's sell for a premium used these days with 60GB units netting upwards of a $100 over the price of the non-BC units.
If that's the case and you can't find one for at least the same price as an 80GB unit, you're better buying a new unit and saving the difference for a new PS2.
