My 40GB PS3 lasted about two years before the BD drive crapped out. I had it repaired, and it eventually suffered the YLOD about a year later.
When my 40GB PS3 BD drive failed last year I enquired about repairing the drive in a local store I was told it would be better to just replace the console now as there was a high possibility of suffering the YLOD. I'm now the owner of a PS3 slim.

Assuming you mean hard drive then yes they all use the same. However the PS3 would wanna format it if you put another hard drive in it.
