If you're 100% certain that the hard-drive is corrupted then it's likely that data-recovery will impossible. Unless you download a program called Easy Recovery which has helped me multiple times with HD failures on PC's. Will it work for a PS3 hard-drive? Not sure, plus you'd need to remove the HDD from the PS3, attach it to an external enlcosure, and then run the Easy recovery program. You're better off just calling Sony and asking them if they can ship you a new HD (doubt they will because they will want to ensure that the HDD is bad as to thwart scammers, so you'll most likely have to send it to them). If you just don't feel like dealing with them at all and you have some extra cash, just go out and buy a new 2.5" SATA HDD. It's really easy to remove the HDD from the PS3, and just as easy to install a new one.
When i turn on my ps3 it says system hard disk file is corrupted and will be restored. So i click ok and it restors but it goes right back to the message again and again and again what should i do?
Weirdly enough my ps3 hard drive currupted today , im so angry but i have to get over it , it is showing the constant same screen , ps3 hard disc currupted so i'm just looking right this moment for an external enclosure , i would appreciate all reply's also i'm just wondering but i think i have a external usb hard drive somewhere, if that was a 2,5" hard drive inside and sata would i be able to take it appart and swap them around.
sorry that dosen't make sense, i was wondering (so i have a external hard drive which can be plugged in via usb), (and that external hard drive i would like to know are you able take out the drive that is in the external and put it the ps3 hdd) , i just want to know because my hdd has corrupted and i need to format it , but this is the quick way otherwise i have to buy a enclousure i believe
oh im not bothered about the data loss , i just want the drive and i was actually just looking on google , and it has happened to loads of people , i just have to plug it in to my normal pc and format it but i was wondering how
