I turned on my PS3 for around 5 hours and it was downloading a DLC from the US PSN Store. The whole time, it never died on me.
And then when I decided to play Assassin's Creed II, it did.
I'm getting a feeling that the culprit is actually the HDD, because I'm watching a BD movie now and its working perfectly. But how, off am I since the HDD woulkd be used during the downloading of the DLC?
Anyone can shed some light on this? Please do let me know. Thanks!

Of more less the same better buy now. from what ive read over the net , the cech3000 slightly better then previous model .. in terms of weight , power consumption etc .. i guess its worth to wait if you planned to buy ps3 slim no doubt cech2500 already been improved in terms of power consumption & weight compared to 1st gen ps3 slim cech2000 .. 2500 and 3000 may be not much difference , but i believe new models are better from what ive seen ps3 slim from the beginning until now seems less problem , so for those who gonna purchase it , any will do
