That your PS3 is just like all the others unless it does it when you turn off via the controller?

Happened to me a lot after update 1.84 (when using controller), now it does it less often. It does it when the HDD is working so it needs to finish working before stopping.

Yeah, mine does it also when the internet is still "active" on shutdown. Not a big deal.
