PS3 Slim Teardown Shows Optical Drive Taking A Ton Of Space

9:56AM August 26, 2009 | Jason Chen

iFixit and RapidRepair both have teardowns of the PlayStation 3 Slim. What did iFixit find? That the Blu-ray optical drive still takes up an assload of space.

Sony can shrink down the other parts, but it’s hard to shrink something that needs to work with a fixed size component (the Blu-ray discs). However, the logic board and everything else does seem smaller, maybe to make room for that massive fan. [iFixit and Rapid Repair]
