I upgraded the hard drive in my PS3 about 2 weeks ago with the 1TB WD Scorpio Blue drive.
So far it has been working great but I wouldn't expect anything less from Western Digital.
I should also mention I had to cut one side off the PS3's thin metal plate that screws to the hard drive to make it fit, but it's nothing you would see once the hard drive has been installed.

Yes I did.
One side on that metal plate hooks over top of the hard drive, that 1TB drive was a bit taller so I had to remove the side of that plate to make it work.
