Yeah so a new 12GB super slim ps3 costs €190.  

Currently my ps4's old 500GB HDD is in my OG Phat ps3 which needs to be replaced.  So if I go ahead and by the new super slim 12GB model will the Ps4 HDD be ok in it?

Yes, it should be. Any 2.5" should work

Nice.  So the plan is to buy a 12GB super slim and transfer the the ps4 500GB HDD from the Phat ps3 into it.  

Will cost me €190. The Phat did good but considering the newer model of the slim and the fact I game mostly on ps4 now,  the thing better fudgy last forever!!

All PS3's use the same style HDD.
The 12 GB though doesn't have the HDD cage.
I think it costs like 3$ to get one.

Mounting bracket is the actual term.
I got mine from amazon, super cheap.

You might be able to get one from the phat PS3, not entirely sure.

I think so.  You can try the phat PS3 one first, is what I'd do.
