hard disk

Hi! Is it possible to reorganize the game partitions after delete them in OPL so I can retrieve that empty space as available? Or if i delete a game partition do i need to rebuild all again to make that space available again?

Hello all i read many interesting topics with many smart people on this great forum but im lost regarding what is the maximum size of SSD drive (or in worst case if i have no choice a mechanic hard drive 7200tr/min...) we can install inside the PS3 Slim and an external one too. I have many PS3...

Hello everyone, first of all, I want to explain that I'm new to the PS2 scene. Currently, my PS2 has been modded with a matrix chip back in 2015, and now I want to start playing it again. However, I'm confused about what preparations I need to make. I've watched various tutorials and learned...

I was using a PS3 CECHH00 and it stopped booting with YLOD symptoms. But when I checked the errlog in syscon, I found that the CELL was dead. Then I removed the CELL and found that the pattern was stripped. 1. I don't have the eid root key. How can I get the data out? 2. If I can't get the...

I've been playing MGS3 HD on my PS3 Slim. I'm getting a performance issue where the curscenes are stuttering. But specifically it's only the cutscenes where video footage is used rather than realtime 3D rendering. I noticed that when the stuttering happens the hard drive light goes solid so my...

Is there a Scandisk type program for the PS2, something that will scan the PS2's IDE hard drive for corrupted or broken game files, please? Preferably a program that runs natively on the PS2, to save having to remove the hard drive from the console and plug into into a PC with still has IDE...

What is the biggest external (NTFS formatted) harddrive size you can use on a HEN jailbreaked PS3 using multiman's NTFS plugin? Have searched for this info but not found a clear answer.

Hi there friends, by now I have researched this issue for several days without a clear answer and decided to ask for some opinions and experiences from the community. My PS3 is a Slim 21xx on CFW Rebug Lite 4.86.1 still with its original 120gb 5400rpm Toshiba HDD (MK1255GSX) with 8mb of buffer...

Hello, I am wondering if i want to change my PS3 harddisk to bigger one, can i just remove small one and put big one and that is it (like if all system is saved somewhere on ps3 like computer has bios, similar) or i have to reinstall all on sony ps3, and can i do that on new disk?

Let me start off by saying, yes I know, it was inherently stupid of me to click OK on the initialize screen in the windows disk manager. What I wanted to do was clone the 500GB HD that I already had in the PS3 to a 500GB SSD. Not knowing that probably wouldn't work anyways after reading a bunch...

Update: picard (a.k.a. 3141card) has released a homebrew app (available here) that changes the reserved space from 8% to 1% automatically. Running the app again will revert the changes. https://mega.nz/file/zdk1lKqZ#aj4WFdOeosH_ncIB5flNtUxPs341PSYaXdLF2DdA45A PS3 Unlock HDD Space by picard...

In the interest of game preservation, I opted to try saving PS4 game patches \ updates onto my external hard drive, so that theoretically, when the day comes that PSN is shut down, I'd still be able to play the games with the latest patches installed. I've found that unlike the PS3, which let...
