As far as I'm aware, once you put a new hard drive into a PS3, it will ask you to format it immediately and you won't be able to choose what else you can do :/

I would've suggested connecting your old PS3 to your new PS3 via ethernet to transfer your files over if you don't have an external hard drive. But this is not an option now :/
