It's possible, but I know that it's a certain size HDD that fits inside. It has to be a 2.5-inch SATA II drive that runs at a rate of 5400RPM at the least.

Should work. It's pretty easy. YouTube has videos.

Just need to download the PlayStation software on a USB drive and back up anything you may want to back up.

If you have PS plus all your save data stays on there. But you will have to DL all the updates for the games again.
