Default PS3 Hard Drives - How much space will you ever even use?
As the title says, how much of the hard drive will you actually ever use up?

Well if you just play games and demos, not very much, but if you have it hooked up to the pc through the internet and put movies and music on to it and stuff it will fill up quick. Also some games are very big!

I MAKE space when I don't have enough. 60GB is enough for those who are rational on the most important things.
But a 250GB is so cheap that it wouldn't hurt buying one if I so wanted.
