    I want a bigger hard drive in my PS3 and I need to back it up....however

    1. I was browsing through some options and it said backup PS3 and does that mean the PS3 can back it self up?

    2. anyone know of a vid where someone swaps out their hard drive? Like a walkthrough type thing?

    Ok I just did this, get an external HDD and back up you stuff in system settings I believe. Then restore it once you install the other drive it gives you basically ALL that was in your old ps3, your video/audio settings, your themes, users, current backgrounds, downloads everything.
