I was using a little bit of sarcasm earlier, but I can easily change the HDD back to the original (its not like I'm going to throw away a perfically good HDD!).

well, I definitely know how to change the HDD now... just not the data on my current HDD.

now I really wish I had a different title...

go to back up utility if you have a big external HDD and that will back up everything except demos or games. it takes about 3 hours or so. if you dont have an external HDD then you can do it one at a time with a flash drive or w/e and move all ur pics, music, vids, and settings. Once u do that, then you can start redownloading all ur demos and games u bought on the PSN by clicking on download list at the main page. u dont have to rebuy anything. i hope that helped.Bsblldude12

Oh good! I hoped it would work that way (only I was hopeing I wouln't have to download all store stuff again because most of my stuff on there are from the store), I'm glad it can transer all my saves that easily. Thanks!

i noe that a 120GB HDD from BB is 100+ or so...200GB wus just a random number..but if ur goin bigger y not get huge?Windblade91

price, thats why, I would like to spend less than $100 for another HDD (that way I can still say mine cost less then the 60gig version PS3 and have more gigs!).

but still not a better value considering i stole my neighbors wifi for a month and i have 5gbs of pictures thanks to the card readers.

that may be for you, but for me I don't use any of those memory cards (I barly takes pictures), I have a direct connection with my enternet (and still would even if I had wifi, it's just more stable), and soon will have a larger HDD!

Just make sure you have the right screw driver because its hard to screw off and you can easily strip the screw (I like I did):P so just go to a tool store if you don't have the right screw driver size before you did, I know a lot of people that did the same thing as me.

i had to take these and unscrew it by the edges cause i stripped it so bad
