I replaced the "old" 40GB hard drive for my PS3 Fat by it or 500GB at a more than reasonable rate. This hard drive is fully compatible with PS3 console. Specifications and especially disk size are very suitable. Formatting (made from the PS3) and resettlement safeguards were held without any concern. The console and the different games work perfectly tested for a few weeks ... As always the best price, product availability and on-time delivery are the "Amazon.com" (and I'm not ^^ commercial service).
