Yes. all your PS3 Hard drive is, is most probably a laptop Drive, and is most definitely SATA. you will need to buy a HDD Enclosure/Caddy relevant to your drive, either 3.5 SATA OR 2.5 SATA. i would sway towards 2.5 over 3.5 i highly doubt it has a desktop drive in there. anyway once you have one of those you can format the drive and just use it as an external :). although the £30 your gonna spend on an enclosure and the hassle of formatting it id say just go to PC World and buy an external HDD for aboiut £50
