Well a PC I doubt because it uses a 3.5" HDD's, but I am pretty sure it will work on a laptop, since laptop's use 2.5" for the most part, just make sure that the laptop uses a serial ata, or SATA connection...

thats probably due to the filesystem i remmeber back when i dabbled in ps2 homebrew, you needed some special progs to read a ps2 formatted hdd

I think that ps3 uses Ext3 and that format can only be read by a Linux machine. Well, there might be an app that allows windows to read it but I don't know any...
