Now are you saying getting a 40Gb for cheap if I can and then use an external hard drive of my choice with it??

you can upgrade the internal hdd of the PS3 with one screwdriver and any SATA notebook drive... takes 5 minutes to do the swap, maybe an hour if you back it up and then restore it.. couldn't be much easier IMO.

It's just that the price differential between the two didn't always reflect the cost difference in the size of the drive... so buy the cheaper unit, and buy another drive.

it cost me $80 to upgrade my PS3 to a 250Gb drive....
