Will this go on the inside of the ps3?

Went inside my CBEH10 model January 2007 production date. Would not work on my CECHA01 model. would not recognize the hard drive. I think it is because of the different cable hookups.

Yes! I installed it in my PS3 Slim. Get the DreamSky® Super Slim Hard Disk Drive HDD Mounting Bracket For PS3 CECH-400x SeriesPS3 if you can't remove the current drive from the bracket. I had problems with the screws on the original. This this the trick. The drive is working great. You do need to use a USB to install a file to get the hard drive to work. The instructions are on the PS3 site on how to upgrade a HD.

It should fit. From what I can tell it has to be a 2.5" drive under 9mm in thickness and this one's spec says it is 0.28" just over 7mm (7.112mm). Look up one of the FAQs out there for PS3 HD install on Google for installation. HTH

yes it will! There is a plate on the front bottom right corner of the ps3 slim under the disk drive. I don't know how it goes in the others.

Absolutely. I've traded out a few of these in PS3s that 'were bad'. The hardware is very easy to change out. Just some screws, then the old one pulls out - there's a little lever thing to lift up to remove the old one -that is very easy - then plug it in, close it up, and put the screws back in. There's videos of it online to watch before you do it if needed. Just search for them on YT.

No. It just slides right into a slot in the side of the console. It's as easy as plugging a flash drive into a USB slot

Yes, it will, it is 2.5 inch SSD and PS3 HDD is 2.5 inch, so it can be replaced with other 2.5 inch HDD or SSD, so it will work.

I don't know I installed it in my Ps3 and it works great except badly designed games: it shows the flaws!

Sorry, I gave the unit as a gift. I would think if you remove the back of the unit, it may be found on the inside. Good Luck.

Yes, right in the front under the Sony name. I haven't attempted to try it out yet.

Sorry. It's design is quite limited. Check with PS3 support. Maybe there's a way around it.

The fan will fit any fat model ps3. It will not fit on the ps3 slim or super slim.

This will work for any ps3 or ps4 where the installation will vary is if it is a PS3 slim it will need the mounting kit.

No. PS3 is Mini USB (This product) PS4 is Micro USB. Completely different cables. Even if the notches of the charger line up it won't physically fit.
