Does anybody know if a ssd is compatible with the ps3 12gb

Yes. I bought this for my 12gb PS3 and it was just what I was looking for to cradle the hard drive.

Yes they are. Before buying though, you should read about the performance increases. As of today (4.19.15) the performance increase really isn't worth it.

I can not answer that question because I did not install the SSD. I brought it to the greek squad at Bestbuy. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Sorry no I put it in my ps4 and put the ps4 hard drive in my ps3. All I can say is it works great in the ps4.

Yes. It works with any SSD. The faster the SSD the better. Get at least 250 GB since its architecture is faster than the 120 GB.Good luck.

I don't have a PS3 but if you format the drive to FAT32 it should work fine

Hello Pedro, you can install any current SSD size, I would recommend 128 or 256 GB better, thanks.

Yes, this HDD works with the PS3. I bought this for my brother's PS3 and it works really good. I would recomend 1TB if you have alot of games, or planning on buying many games from PS Store.

I would say no. At least for my case. I would assume that the slim PS3s have the same size case as the fat ones. The 1TB item you are looking at is 12.5mm and the hard drives that fit on the fat ps3 are 9.5mm. The highest gigs that i know of that will fit are the 750gb. The are 9.5mm. I've yet to find a 1TB hd that has a 9.5mm size. Hope this helps.

I will move files between my PS3 and Computer using this device. So I will say it will work as an SSD. I will mention for the sake of conversation that it will not accept files larger than 4gb if you have it formatted with anything other than FAT32. My PS3 only reads NTSC formatting so it wont see anything with it if its FAT32. Saying that, of course, if its just purposed as an SSD then it will work fine for you and will hold files of any size as long as you format the CF card with FAT32. Hope this helps.

It works in the super slim ps3 I used it in my 250 GB model not sure if it works in the first slim but any new ps3 to date this will work

I use the hard drive for my Asus laptop so I have no experience using the hard drive on a ps3

the PS3 comes standard with a 2.5" SATA hard drive. If you were to replace it your largest current option is one of the 500GB 2.5" Sata hard drives (Seagate,Hitachi, and others make them). The drives menioned above are 3.5" SATA hard drives that would not fit normally into the slot. That said you might be able to "make it work" with an external hard drive case and a SATA to eSATA adapter, but it would be extreme and non trivial.

Did this work for your ps3 super slim? I'm trying to upgrade my storage compacity.

PS3 allows replacement of the internal hdd. "The HDD must be a 2.5" internal Serial ATA HDD." as quoted from the support pages:https://support.us.playstation.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/362/~/upgrade-the-hard-disk-drive-(hdd)So therefore, in principle, this SanDisk should work. Having said that, I had to return mine in two weeks as it has become completely inoperative. Be prepared to test first. Whatever you end up getting for your PS3, leave it on for a couple of days and make sure that you have a zero cost return policy for at least 30 days.

I'm sorry. I'm not all that up to date with SSD's. I'm not sure if it will work.

None as far as I know of. I purchased the 480 gig version and all that came with it was the SSD and an adapter to make it fit in a 9mm drive space if needed. The Crucial website sells software to assist in installing the SSD so check it out to see if that will help.
