5/31    I'm not a hardcore gamer, but I do play games sometimes. Is the
        80G Sony PS3 sufficient for say, 2-3 years? I'll use it 80% for
        BlueRay movies and 15% game (I play 3-4 games a year max), and
        possibly 5% something else. I'm just trying to figure out how
        long a 80G will last based on my usage, and whether I can get
        away with a 40G version, or if the 160G is a must have or not. Thanks.
        \_ I'm not a gamer but it looks like the PS3 will be around for at
           least another 5 years. Quick web search supports my theory.
        \_ the primary use of the HD on the PS3 is for saving of game
           data and downloadable content from the Playstation Network
           store. It can also be used for storing BD-Live stuff but
           thus far, nobody has put out anything compelling at all
           on BD-Live. Given what you say about your use patterns,
           the 80GB should be way more than enough for you. Since
           80% will be spent watching BluRay, I'd also recommend
           getting the BluRay remote control which is about $25.
           \_ Isn't the PS3 a regular SATA connection?  You can upgrade
              the drive yourself.
              \_ Yes that too. An 80GB SATA laptop drive can be had for
                 much less than the $100 difference between the 80GB
                 and 160GB.
