I did the shake test and nothing inside was moving.

So the PS3 was cool with it.

On normal load I also barely can hear a noise increase so mission accomplished I guess^^

hey, if it works, it works :D

Not sure if I like the way this was stated. It's not gonna blow up on you because you took tech advice from a girl (I hope).
