Expansion of the storage in your PS3 is a really nice quality of life upgrade, no matter how you get the job done. The Western Digital Blue is a name that you can trust, but the SanDisk is a name that you will know, and it has a great product and a reasonable price.
If you need to save money, you can always use the hybrid drive, but a full solid state drive is better for you.
The compromise.
I don't blame you if you're looking at all these prices and are overwhelmed. Solid-state storage is expensive. If you still want to see an increase in speed on your PS4 but want to save some money, there is another option.
Solid State hybrid drive is called SSHD. The elevator pitch for drives like this is that you will see fast speeds with traditional drive prices. I wouldn't put one in my PC and expect the same performance as an SSD, and this claim is somewhat dubious. I would put one in my PS3. The increase in speed from a hybrid drive to the stock PS4 drive should be visible at a reasonable price point.
At Amazon, it's from $55.
