Just opened mine up... you could do that if you wanted to. The only other interference for the ssd is one of those silly crimp on metal cages.
very excellent guide, easy to execute. I didn't even do the entire thing:
I disassembled the ps3 until I had the mainboard out, and removed the metal shield from the bottom. with the rest of the components intact, I used my hot air station to reflow the CPU/GPU.
with the processors facing down, and some tin foil with square holes cut (to better shield the rest from the heat), this whole job took me less than 30min.
I used the GeForce GPU reflow profile that I use for macbooks, and it worked like a charm.
