I think my ps3 is one step away from a 2nd YLOD, don't want to risk it. |
It doesn't matter. Segate Momentus (non XT) 750GB 7200 rpm HDD £70-75. Buy it now. Wait for the new PS3 model, if any.Backup your new HDD, put the old 80GB HDD back, sell the Phat PS3 and buy the cheapest Slim. Hopefully still the 120GB. Replace the HDD in the new Slim with the 750GB one (that doesnt void the warranty), run the restore. A new Slim with a 500GB HDD will probably cost you more than a 120GB Slim + the 750GB HDD. If you are afraid of YLOD sell it now. If you get a YLOD in the meantime you just lose the data. The new HDD will be safe. It's harder to write it than to do it..
