PS3 - Chec Hard drive space?

[spirit0flight]

Hopefully somebody can answer this

basically i want to know:
How If possible i can check how much space my PS3 is using of the hard drive installed in it..?

I have the 60 Gig so i would assume i havent really used any yet.. but when i came to download a fiel from the store it told me i had 47 Gig left..
So where Did the 13gig disapear too..? (When I hadnt put anything on it till then)

Well come is lost in the conversation rate. (1024kb=1mb)

Yea, and dont forget it needs alot of space to put its system files since its practically a computer.

It's like a PC. It may have a 250 GB capacity, but you'll only have around 240 upon arrival, because of system files, extra software, and process logs. Same holds true for the PS3.

Lol so.. the PS3 brags about a 60 gig console when really it won't hold THAT much stuff.. how amusing.

Same thing with the wii rach... Someone is going to bring up channels...

[surfinrach90]

I suppose, but the 60 gig thing is a PS3 'selling point'.

Please put on your helmet The hard drive will hold 60gb. However the ps os takes up room on it. What is so hard to understand about that? You are a true nintendo fanboy. your head is shoved so far up your ass you can barely breathe, let alone think.

In many peoples eyes there is one thing worce then a fanboy, and that's people that call other people fanboy's. Stop being stupid, in all actual fact what is wrong with someone just liking one company? The chances are that people who call someone a "Nintendo fanboy" are just insulted because they found a bad feature about their own beloved company and they are really just a fanboy themselves.

If what spirit says is true that 13 Gig has gone missing to items such as the main operating system ends up taking 13 gig up, this seems slightly unfair to advertise this product as 60gig which really misleads people into thinking they have 60 gig for themselves.

However this has majorly gone off topic, all he really asked was how can he can check how much hard drive space he has left, can anyone actually answer this for him?
