How to switch hard drive on different fat models?
I bought two broken fat ps3s off ebay, one had the broken motherboard and no display and the other one was missing a hard drive. I tried installing the hard drive from the first PS into the other one following the guide on this site but the systems have different connectors for the hard drives? The PS I took the drive out of had the connectors facing forward and the second PS had them to the left. How do I properly install the hard drive into the second PS? They are both fat models.
EDIT: The broken model I’m taking the drive from is a CECHL03 and the second is a CECHG03.

@retroadvance
post some images of those connectors etc or at least give us the data label from both of those drives. They should all be SATA drives

@oldturkey03 I only have one drive because the second PS3 came without one

I'm not a ps3 expert however one seems to be a 40gb version and the other an 80gb version so I'm not sure if the drives are interchangeable so without pictures that may be the problem ur having

Yes my fat. PlayStation 3 is a go1 and the drive comes straight out and goes straight in while my other fat model you have to move it left to come out and then back to right later for it to work why is that and in the first model I talked about above I want to replace the drive with a ssd drive but when I do it says it can’t find system on the drive but if I replace with 2.5 regular drive works fine what do I need to do to get it to work with ssd
