The harddrive is the size of a standard notebook harddrive not a PC size harddrive. So you can not fit it in the smaller spot required for the notebook size harddrive
A PS3 harddrive is a standard size notebook harddrive and are only worth the amount of a used laptop harddrive of the same GB size. The $50 extra currently being charged for the 320 GB harddrive is about value of a new 160 GB harddrive so a used 120 GB harddrive would be worth much less.
PS3's have been designed to allow the harddrive to be replaced with standard notebook size harddrives. You can increase the size of the current harddrive or you can replace the PS3 with a new model with a larger harddrive.
depends on several factors- 1) if there is any data on that harddrive you need, TAKE OUT THE HARDDRIVE. 2) if the harddrive is less than 120 GB, and the above is not true, GET RID OF IT. 3) if the harddrive is working, and number 2 is NOT true, KEEP IT. A working harddrive of decent size is always helpful to have around.
Sure the PS3 was designed to accept a standard laptop harddrive and made for easy replacement and upgrade of the harddrive. You can have the largest laptop size available installed in the PS3 or any other size. The PlayStation network support also has procedures for upgrading the harddrive.
No once updated it is permanent and I don't believe even a harddrive replacement can restore it. You also can put a smaller size harddrive in any PS3 and it will be the same model with a smaller harddrive and not a different model
GB's refer to the size of the PS3 harddrive and factory produced models come with a game and a 320 GB harddrive for under $300
The PS2 slim does not have a harddrive
Try taking the harddrive out and if it is still intact you can put it in a different working computer with the same size of harddrive
It depends on the size of the circuit it is in... An Xbox HardDrive weighs about 1.0-1.5KG A PC HardDrive weighs about 1.7-2.1KG (1000gram = 1kilo gram).
The PS3 was designed to be able to have a standard laptop size harddrive and meant to allow upgrading. The only reason to upgrade a hard drive is for more storage space and/or a higher quality harddrive. That is the reason to upgrade any harddrive
