About this product
This is a Hitachi 80GB Playstation 3 (PS3) Hard Drive, model HTS542580K9SA00 from the 5K250-80 series. It is a 2.5-inch form factor SATA drive, operating at 5400 RPM. Compatible with laptops and PCs, it supports SATA I, II, and III interfaces, and features hot swap and removable capabilities for flexible use.
Our take
If you're looking to upgrade or replace an existing 80GB drive in a PlayStation 3, or need a compact storage solution for an older laptop, this Hitachi drive is a solid, albeit modest, option. The 5400 RPM speed is standard for this type of drive, providing reliable performance. The broad SATA I, II, III interface compatibility is a nice touch, offering flexibility for older and slightly newer systems. While 80GB is small for modern needs, its 'hot swap' and 'removable' features add convenience for certain applications. For its intended use with a PS3, it's perfectly adequate.
