Ah.. sneaky Sony.. http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2012/09/19/ps3-gets-smaller-and-lighter/
owners of the 12GB model will be able to connect a 2.5 inch SATA internal hard drive with use of an official Mounting Bracket, or opt for purchase of an official PlayStation 250GB internal HDD.
so you have to buy the official Mounting Bracket if you want to add a sata drive of your own..
