I'm thinking of upgrading the hard drive in my PS3 to make it a little more useful- it's an older 40GB model (wanted to actually start being able to download full PS3 games, do less storage pruning and perhaps also for using the PlayTV DVR add-on).

Does anyone have any recommended HDDs I could use to upgrade my PS3? It needs to be 2.5" SATA I (I've heard that newer WD HDDs aren't able to be forced from SATA II to SATA I, and thus won't work in a PS3), and it's height should be no more than 9.5mm. It should preferably have 500GB capacity and 5400rpm (no real point in getting anything faster).

I'm currently looking at this 500GB Seagate Momentus HDD (ST9500325AS).
