So I of course bought a PS3 not long after the 40 GB was released. I now have about 10 GB left which is nowhere near enough to hold all of the upcoming titles that will be installed. So I was wondering if this would be a good hard drive replacement: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Western+Digital+-+Scorpio+Blue+250GB+Internal+Serial+ATA+Hard+Drive+for+Laptops/9024147.p?id=1218012522486&skuId=9024147&st=2.5%27%20Serial%20ATA%20%28250GB%29&cp=1&lp=2


tl;dr I need an upgrade will this work?

I put a 320 in mine and it was pretty easy but you should know that you will most likely destroy the screws since they're soft as hell. Try using pliers or something instead when removing the screws that hold the HDD in place and you'll have a much easier time.
