I ordered the hard drive for the PS3 Super Slim (12GB). This hard drive is 100% compatible with the PS3, which is also the reason why I ordered it.

After installing the hard disk (support required), the hard disk is recognized immediately but then later is with me the rebuilding of the data (after copying) Failed, and the hard drive must be formatted. And wiederhohlt repeatedly.
In order for the hard disk is working I proceeded according to these instructions:
_____________________________________________________________________________
- PS3 system in standby
(Let fingers for the whole period on the I / O button!)
- I / O 1. Press the Beep
3 sec 2. Beep
3 sec 3 beep
- PS3 turns off.
- PS3 is back in the standby
=======================================
(Let fingers for the whole period on the I / O button!)
- PS3 I / O button press beep 1
3 sec 2. Beep
3 sec Double-beep
- PS3 is in an emergency / Diagnostic Menu
Then on "2.a memory type change" (or something similar) then go is if you really want to replace the flash memory to the hard drive
Confirm and then I came to the main menu and the hard drive has to work
