Also, if your hard drive is more than about 80% (not exact) full it slows down a bit.

I didn't either until today. I read about it on some tech website. Interesting. And explained why my computer has been so slow lately. It was sitting at about 10mb of free space haha. I cleared up about 40 gigs and its going much faster :]

hmm.. didnt know that either.. i don't believe it tho.

i read ur link just their and it didnt mention PS3 anywhere.

Ps3 has its own file system, so i would think it won't suffer from a problem like this, that a regular pc does.
