I don't think so. My slim with 35% fan is at 60-65 digress always, relative to ambient temp. Hummmm, mine works ok. It's been around 5 years. [emoji1745]

Well i do use a Samsung evo 860 on my PS3 and it has write endurance somewhere around 150TB which if you write montly on it half TB that would be 70-80 month which that translate to 5-6 years which at that point it is recommended to change storage no matter of what type it is. So endurance...

I've seen some people arguing that SSD drives produce "much less heat" but consider this: a very good and efficient SSD uses 5V 0.35A 1.75 Watt while an HDD uses 5V 0.85A 4.25 Watt. With a difference of 2.5W less, it is not something you would see on the thermometer.

From https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/Harddrive: SATA-150 controller with a maximum transfer speed of 1.5 Gbit/s Yeah, why i had it sata2 on top of my head, i dunno.

The only reason would be added reliability as SSD does not have anything moving. In terms of speed, the sata1 in PS3 is far from taking any advantage of an SSD. Also, keep in mind it would treat SSD as HDD, so no trim and SSD specific treatment.

As others already mentioned, the below 70 c is considered normal. As for opening console, just look at your model teardown videos so you get the idea of what's what.

No compatibility issues. It's just that web man by default is set to take temps under 70, which leads to higher fan speed than syscon, which syscon is a phat killer. So, if your temp is 70 and higher, it would try to reduce it.

1: Yes. Just update either through the XMB update menu or through recovery mode(i did it through XMB). 2- i don't know, but it should work given that nothing groundbreaking is changed in 4.90.

I was looking through Custom Firmware Tools > Service Tools > Advanced Service Tools and there is Check and Toggle 8th SPE. How do i know my 8th SPE is activated apart from that check thingy?

Hummmm. I don't know. As they are years old(some dates back to 2008/9). And funny enough, like my other comment, they don't even have an earned date.

Now, something much more interesting happened. One of my games won't sync some thropies, as i can clearly see them in offline mode, but when i switch to online mode, i don't have them.O_o any thoughts?

I wanted to ask it before but kept forgetting to ask: Even before using evilant, my trophies won't show earning date. Any ideas why tho? Could it be related to CFW? Or the fact i didn't have any PSN user/profile on it?

Head to first post and choose any link to cfw you like that saying oc in name.

[emoji28] where is it located?

Any one knows how to change FPS counter items? I can remember someone here who has done that but can't remember who he was.
