PS3 Slim startup issue


NitroNeo

Recommended Posts

First of all from my video , what issue do you think it is , is it console related or hard drive related , secondly if the hard disc is safe can i ask sony to give me a ps3 super slim 12 gb & replace it's hard disc with my current 320 gb one , i am feeling the heartburn of loosing all my data :cry:

Ok so I am in the same boat, they are giving the super slims as replacement (9000 for my more than 3 years old fat) here in Mumbai. I hate it.

moreover the 12 Gb super slim they are giving does not even have a HDD Caddy so I can't even put in a new HDD. I have to buy the Caddy. I am ok with even that but that apparently is note even available here.

 

I am going store to store to find a slim if I can :(/>

But you can get a slim for slim & if you have the fat then you can get the smallest amount of GB version of the slim , why don't you prefer a super slim 500 gig , zodak told me that if you give sony a Rs.11,000 DD then you can get that 500 gig model , is it just because of the noise it will make or some users report it takes slightly more time to load or is there something else which i really need to know which makes the super slim a total ignore ?

 

Also so since you have to buy a caddy does it mean our ps3 slim hard drive is of a different size ? so my ps3 slim hard drive wont fit in to the super slim 12 gb model ?

Yeah they do , at least they did for zodak

 

@avkash , so if we buy the caddy from amazon & then use our ps3 slim hdd with ps3 super slim 12 gb then it will work

 

BTW @anyone , how do you know if a ps3's hard drive is dead ?

OMG. I have a dead NTSC-J 60GB fatty, that's like 5 years old, and has even been opened. Can I try? :fear:

Try booting your ps3 without the HDD, if all works fine then you know what the problem is

From what I've heard they don't even accept PALps3's which have been opened, definitely worth a try though.

If you insert the same HDD in a new ps3 it will be formatted, and yes as avkash has said it won't fit without the caddy iirc

 

teh hdd will fit but the caddy won't

moreover the buggers are not giving 500 GB model :rant:/>

That is some sh*t, reply to PM :fear:

Hmm what do you mean by this , ps3 slim hdd + caddy should work for the 12 gb super slim right

I went to a mall today , asked one shop guy , he said sony will release new new 500 gb ps3 super slim in mid or late jan & for 22-23k , this sucks , i will officially boycott sony next gen :furious:

Dude relax

Trophies and download history are tied to your account as long as you have the password of your sen account you can sign in on any ps3 on any part of the world and play games then sync it, only psn downloads will not work they are limited to a max of 2 consoles so you need to deactivate any 1 1st.

Deactivate without loosing fear but make sure you don't forget the password and your sign in email id

 

when you get a new 1st of all set up your account and sync the trophies and then resume playing

otherwise you will get this nasty message if you load up a backed save

THIS SAVE BELONGS TO OTHER USER TROPHIES ARE DISABLED

 

If you earn a trophy in this mode it will say trophies not earned lol

I hope my account is deactivated coz i deactivated it from ps3 :fear:

 

lol a sen account is never deactivated, once it is created it will remain forever you cannot close,delete or deactivate it

By deactivating it means the ps3 IDPS (each ps3 has a unique IDPS,do not confuse it with MAC address) associated with your account is removed

 

Hope you get it :bigyellowgrin:
