    Hey I just bought myself a new hard drive for my PS3 and I was just wondering if it would be possible to have the new hard drive I bought and the hard drive that came with the PS3 both formatted with the one PS3 and then I can switch them whenever I want without having to reformat one or the other.

    Thanks in advance!

    i believe you can. you will be able to ell tho, just do a backup first before you attempt it, that way you dont loose all your content.
    just backup then swap hdd's. then see if you can swap them back and forth

    yes. I've got a 1 Terabyte drive I use for gaming and the stock 120 gig drive I have for the PS3/linux combo firmware. After you get both drives running on your ps3 you can just swap them out
