RIP. The 60GB one was such an awesome beast. Mine still works, but it overheats quickly so I can't play it for long bursts,

try cleaning it up. get a vacum and try cleaning all the dust away. did that with my slim PS3 when it started making noise. got A LOT quiter after i did so. 

I can try that, but anyway I have a 250gb one now so I don't really need the old one. I'm gonna keep it though because I'm proud to be the only one out of my friends to have the backwards compatible launch PS3.
