well automatically the ps3 should request for the same firmware version you're currently on.
Let say you're running on Rogero 4.55, then you put in a different HDD, the ps3 should start off saying
" The system software cannot be run correctly..........If the system cannot be restarted, the system partition of the system storage must be reformatted and you must reinstall the system software.
Connect storage media that contains update data version of 4.55 or later, and then press Start and Select button at the same time."
If you don't see this message then after connecting your controller and pressing the PS button. Then yes go into safe/recovery mode and go to option 6 to install the CFW
