uhhhhh ya duh

Im not talking aobut XMB>System>backup Utility

I'm talking about manual (full system control) backing up and restoreing..

Useing Multiman or another file manager to do a REAL BACK up...

and since he quoted Vanhishing Space Im assuing hes runing a CFW PS3.

----------------
Ifs hes useing OFW they the only way would be the system backup Utility and yes he would have to sync trophies first and then re-sync back after doing a restore.
--------------------------------

if on CFW back up
Dev_Hdd0/Home
Dev_Hdd0/Games
dev_HDDo/SaveGame
dev_hdd0/Theme
Dev_flash
Dev_flash2
Dev_flash3

would be the best way to do it... or atlest thats how I do a PS3 backup
