You don't transfer trophies, they are a part of your PSN account.

^Indeed, a USB stick or external HDD. Trophies are tied to your PSN account though so you don't have to worry about those.Floppy_Jim

NO, just run a back up from the dash. You may want to delete videos, music, demos to shorten the time and size of the back up. I did this and did not have to redownload updates. Firmware updates up date a chip hence the term firmware not software.

Forgot to mention it backs up game install data where your updates go so again no you don't have to reinstall updates.

[QUOTE="freham2001"][QUOTE="Dante_May_Die"] does this mean i must download all the updates for my PS3 games again?Dante_May_Die

16 kB/s? Isn't that lower than dial up?

Yes, I used a usb hard drive. If your getting a new drive you should get an enclosure for the drive your taking out of your PS3. You'll still need to get something to run the backup with though.

It's been a while but ya I'm pretty sure. It basically creates an image of your drive so everything is there.
