Some of you may run into an issue where the PS3 keeps telling you to connect a storage media even though you followed all the directions on the video. (Great video as well) so if you are running into this issue make sure your drive is a MBR not GPT that should let the PS3 recognize the external drive. Also cluster size / allocation size set to 32 (32mg)
@@Toomnyusernae Unfortunately, no. The drive is simply a storage cabinet. However jailbroken PS3 is more likely to be fixable from the CBOMB issue. Unless Sony patches it out it is still a problem. As far as I am aware they reversed their decision to shut down the PS3 store for now. So you can stay on official firmware but I jailbroke mine just in case as it will be easier to remedy the CMOS/CBOMB issue when it does happen.
I keep getting that error message! How do you format an external drive to Fat32 MBR? The 3rd party programs I've tried to format to Fat32 all default to GPT and I can't find a way to change this.
@@Great_Watt I use AOMEI Partition Assistant but I am sure the free version will do this for you otherwise you can use something open source such as Fat32Format. May need a hard drive to USB adapter or bay to actually conenct the drive to your PC or directly via SATA to your PC.
My old June-2008-Fat-PS3 died in March, 2017 from the Yellow Lights of Death and in Oct. 2019, some people sold me their PS3 Super Slim so I’ve been wanting to extract the Save Data from the Internal Hard Drive itself. I’ve just been wondering if I can use my Desktop to connect the PS3 80 GB Internal Hard Drive to the PC and look at all the Internal Files to see if I can copy my Game Data onto a USB Drive and insert it into my current PS3 Super Slim to continue playing Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, MGS4, and The Last of Us Part 1 again??? 🤔 My Old PS3 just won’t work or display a picture due to a burnt out Chip I think, it still powers up though. There’s like 4 different ways to move/copy PS3 Save Data onto another PS3 but I didn’t do those in the first place cuz I didn’t know how much sand my PS3 had inside of it.
One of the things i like specifically on your videos is that there is no doubts left no magically exploit but restoring yes no stone unturned no confusion
Does the USB Hard Drive need to have the same storage capacity as the PS3 hard drive or do the files automatically get compressed in the transfering process?
Great video, solved a lot of the doubts I had! Sorry for the question I'm new at this, but can you restore this backup on other exploited PS3s and the games will be reinstalled too? I've searched a lot and some people say that games are copyrighted and because of that they are only reinstalled when the data is restored on the same PS3 the backup mas made on. Like these files were linked to a specific PS3 and will only be allowed on that machine. Thank you
Very good and backing up PS3 Hard Drive data via Backup Utility is better to use on cfw and hen since all protected items, trophies, and downloaded content can be restored. Not use with ofw since it has limitations.
should work by Sector by Sector Clone Method but as i know the Backup works only for the Same Console if you try to restore to a new PS3 will not Work becouse the HDD has Paring infos to the OLD PS3
When i choose the destination where to make the backup, the screen saying Preparing... Please Wait appears and it won't get past there no matter how much i wait, already waited for 20 minutes and nothing🤔
I bought a hard drive will it work in my ps3 without formatting? If not then is there anyway I can pull the data off and transfer it to a working hard drive?
Hi I was wondering how long restoring my ps3 usually takes? It only took like 5 minutes to back up, so I assumed it would be fast. But mine is stuck at 0%.
Use a Usb drive and sign in when the new hard drive is formatted. Just use backup utility yeah it takes forever. But at least when the new hdd ssd is formatted you just click restore from usb backup.
For some reason my backup doesn’t get recognized by my USB, is it corrupted data? The system itself recognizes the usb and I can see the file on my computer
