yes you can if you have the bigger version of the playstation 3 on the left side is a small door take off that door and you will see some metal with a blue screw. Take out that screw and slide the HDD to the right then pull it out. This is the memory device for the ps3 also known as the HDD or hard disk drive. The details printed on the the HDD will help you determine what kind of hard drive you will need when you upgrade. Amazon.com is a great chap way to buy hard drives

Who is the inventor of the PlayStation 3?
PS3There is really no "inventor" of the playstation 3. The playstation 3 is an upgrade to the playstation 2 and playstation 1. The person who invented the playstation 1, could probably be credited with inventing the playstation 3. However, the playstation 1 was merely an improvement to the CD-based consoles before that, so whoever came up with the first CD-based console could probably be credited with the invention of the playstation 3. RE: Actuly sonny created the ps3 and the idea was from Cody rinehart

You need to upgrade the hard drive (to a bigger one) or clean it if you have to many games installed.
Where do you find a hard disc for PlayStation 3?
You can find a Hard Drive for the PS3 at the website for DiscounTechnology. The optimal HDD (Hard Drive Disk) for the PS3 is SeaGate 2.5" SATA HDD with at least 5400 RPM. Any other will slow down your console anywhere from mildly to drastically. I recommend the SeaGate 2.5" SATA 500Gb HDD. Or if you would prefer a different size, they range anywhere from 1Gb to 1Tb (1Tb [One Terabyte] is equivalent to 1,000 Gigabytes) Be sure you only get the SeaGate brand, or your PlayStation 3's performance will be compromised. The RPM won't matter in this case, as it only determines the speed that the data is retrieved from the hard drive and sent to different locations. link for Playstation network support will help with instalation Can I upgrade the hard disk drive (HDD) inside my PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system

Yes & No you actually can swap the hdds but they are new so i am guessing you can back up on to a memory stick and copy to the hard drive then I added a link to "Can I upgrade the hard disk drive (HDD) inside my PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system?" that includes trouble shooting procedures. It may be of help and is part of the Playstation Support and Knowledge Center

Should you get the PlayStation 3 slim or the PlayStation 3 origanal?
PlayStation 3 Slim because it is quieter and lighter. It really depends the use of the PlayStation 3 that you need. If you want to play the PlayStation 2 games on your new system, you should get the Original 20GB or the 4USB port 60GB or 80GB PS3. If you want a quiet and with more HDD space system, then by all means get the new slim versions. Hope this helps.
