Upgrading the HDD on your Sony PS3 is real easy and was designed that way by Sony. All you do backup your entire PS3 contents to an external USB HDD. (This is gonna take a Looong while).
Then unscrew 1 screw to take off the cover plate for the harddrive. (of course making sure it is unplugged and off!)
Pull out old drive, put in new drive.
PS3 will prompt you to reformat the drive into it's proprietary format. (Which erases all data on the drive in case you didn't know)
Now restore your old data from the USB HDD. (also takes a looong time, because USB is slow.)

Your all set with brand new hard drive.
