Hey, i have just got a 320gb hard drive i want to replace my old 40gb hard drive. I'm going to buy PS+ so i can backup all my saves online, and then i assume re-download them all. The problem i have is, i don't want to lose all my trophy progression. For example i am currently on my last playthrough of Dark Souls for the platinum, and the same goes for a few other games. Can i just re-download my save files and continue where i left off? Or will my trophy progression be wiped and it will assume i'm a different user?

Thanks

Your trophies are tied to your PSN account and not to the individual PS3 or HD so they won't be lost. Just install the new HD and then log in with your account and everything will sync up again.

So i can continue progress on old trophies? For example get the platinum on Dark Souls on the new hard drive?

Correct. Your trophies are not tied to a particular console or hard drive; they are only tied to your PSN ID. So it doesn't matter how many HDs you swap out or how many PS3s you own. As long as you log in under that PSN ID with that specific trophy info you can continue progress where you left off.
