Ive never heard of this but can anyone help me. Often when I begin playing a game I get a message telling me I cant sign into the PSN because of error 8022ED6. Ive checked and my internet connection is fine but my connection with the PSN keeps failing. Has anyone been in a similar situation and can help?

How can you think if you don't know enough words?

How do you know what I think until you hear what I say.

It has been known to happen with some Hard drives in general but the likelihood is extremely rare and almost never happens in this day and age.

As far as if it could happen usually it only happens while near magnets I've only once in all my years heard of it happening spontaneously. It's why I'm slowly switching over to solid state HDD's. Did your friends per chance have their PS3 near a Speaker? I would be willing to bet the speaker was not magnetically shielded and wiped their HDD.
