I love my 500 GB HDD. Atleast I will love it till we start having 50GB installs next year lol.

Forza 3 required a HD install so I was thinking this would be inevitable with GT5. I always try to keep my HD as free as possible by deleting old/unnecessary files.

Isn't installing games on consoles better for the console? No need for a spinning disc which is hard on the machine.

Depends on if you have a PS3 or a 360.

This is simply installing data, not the game. Only the 360 can "install" games to its hard drive.

Yeah, as hinted at by a few posters above, I HIGHLY recommend going to newegg.com or another parts wholesaler for hard drive upgrades. All you have to do is look at laptop hard drives, as the 2.5 inch drives will fit your ps3. It as an EXTREMELY easy switch. Don't forget to use the data transfer wizard that is included on your system before popping out the old drive. You'll need an external hard drive as well. You can get 750 GB 7200 rpm drives for under $100. Well worth it...
