The PlayStation 3 was designed to allow the unit to take a standard size harddrive and it can be replaced. This is not something you are supposed to do , but something that can be done and I quote the related link for the PlayStation knowledge center :
"The PS3 system hard disk drive (HDD) is removable and upgradeable. An upgrade can be performed by removing the hard drive and replacing it with a larger capacity drive. Please be advised that if you replace the hard drive, the data that was on the original hard drive will not show up on the PS3 unless you manually back up the data and transfer it to the replacement hard drive"
The related link shows procedures to remove the harddrive from most PS3 models
