04-13-2011,02:01 PMweb, only read a few posts in link u provided but seems like they give u a step by step. see, i kept everything on my pc so i dint car about backing up hdd0. all i did was get game saves and used xmb to download them to a thumbdrive. you have to locate the model number of ur unit and that will tell u alot as well. worse case scenario, just plug in the new drive and see what it says. pretty simple. hope you find ur answer

04-13-2011,05:11 PMI have a 60GB CECHA 01 Launch model, running Kmeaw 3.55 CFW. I've swapped out the hard drive with new ones several times. Originally Posted by WEB11
