Is it possible to replace the (Fat) PS3's optical drive with a PC Optical Drive?
If the optical drive for a fat Ps3 is failing, would be able to open it and in it's place install either a standard internal PC optical drive or an external optical drive. I don't want it to look pretty, I just want it to work.
Best Answer
No, the drive has a special ribbon connector and is also slanted as seen in this video. You can order one online however.
