So YOU are a PS3 player huh? In-Depth guide for Graphic & Gameplay OPTIMIZATION!

I have put a 500GB/4GB flash hybrid in my MacBook and the performances raise is quite noticeable. I wonder how it would perform in a PS3. Especially now that there are SSHD with much larger flash RAMs.

Still, the SSD performances on PS3 hit the bottleneck of the SATA2 bus. That's a bit of a shame.

yeah, I'm not sure tech specs for hybrids, but I'm sure it would be faster than the oem 5400rpm ones. As for the SATA limitation. I mentioned it briefly in the video so that people dont go out to buy the best of the best... with most features not being utilized by the ps3 hardware. LOL!

I'm sure if you were thinking of an SSD price you can get a hybrid with a larger capacity. not sure what the comparison would be compared to just all out ssd though.

About hybrid HHDs it depends on the algorithm they are using. I expect a modified LRU (Less Recently Used) like in the virtual memory to move from flash memory to disc the blocks used less recently and thus copying on flash the blocks freshly accessed.

Without getting too technical the idea is that the flash memory should contain what it is used the most. So after accessing a couple of times the same areas, monsters or FATEs they all should be in flash memory. Also consider that the flash in 1TB SSHD is 8GB. That is more than enough to keep the whole FF XIV game and the part of the OS most used (the one that loads much faster because of the Flash memory like the ingame XMB). Add the SATA2 limitation and I am pretty sure an hybrid would be the best option with performances similar (but not guaranteed) to the ones of SSDs.

In any case 5400rpm is junk.

my wife and I are really enjoying the ssd's in the ps3's now... she is not getting frustrated by fates when she couldn't previously see any enemies.

Sure. I just wonder if a 1TB SSHD would be the right compromise. My 750GB HDD is already full with PS+ games, a small SSD wouldn't do.

INCREDIBLE LOADING AND RENDERING DIFFERENCES WITH SSD install! Proof: http://youtu.be/r1o1I1zb8gU

Any thoughts on how the PS4 is going to handle the game when it's released next month?

considering you CAN'T play FFXIV on the PS4 next month, I'd imagine it would run like poop if you find a way to hack it into playing the game... As for how the game will be when they start BETA in FEB 2014, I'm sure it will be WAYYYYYY WAYYYYY better than the PS3 version.

With your permission may I link your guide in my FAQ guide im making? I think it'd help a lot of players!

I'm still looking for one that I would be happy buying.

Hiya Jon! Lovin your vids, my friend. Sorry if it's covered elsewhere, but what SSD did you settle on? I'm thinkin about pickin one up on my way home from work tonight and trying to do some research/shopping while I have some time.

Anyone else know?
