I'm going to pick up a bigger HDD pretty soon for my rev A Unibody MBP. Would I be able to use the old 250 GB 5400 drive in the PS3? Seems like a worthwhile upgrade. I'm guess since they are aboth SATA it should work, right?

the original unibody hard drive has 4 nibs that stick out the side that i think are not removable. its some kind of custom drive. you will see what i mean when you change it. it just helps hold the original drive in better. it does not effect your upgrade though. the nibs are not needed.
ive never changed a drive in the ps 3 so the nibs may not matter. but i think its important enough to point out anyway. -
Yes, it should work flawlessly as they both use sata connectors.
The "nibs" removable with a torx t6 screwdriver. -
If the PS3 uses 2.5" drives it should be fine. The hard drive screws come out.

Yes...works...enjoy.
