My Playstation 3 Slim [2009 model] bought on year 2010 seems gg now

Press power button [green] > Run 5-10 seconds (screen shows nothing) > 3 beeps sound > Power button flash red

Seems like overheat?

I did change the HDD afterward and the screen does show something "connect dualshock to continue" but it quickly gone away with 3 beeps sound and flash red light

It could be only 2 things,

NEC tokins failing, all the RSX needs to be reballed by an experience technician.

Do not go to DELID IHS method, just need to get a good thermal paste. Or if you are daring, can refer to youtube video on how to repaste the the GPU and CPU.

YLOD is a sign of failing components, not dead motherboard.

Ouch .. at least let me retrieve my things inside , lol

Or we can actually slap the HDD to another PS3 to retrieve?

If you did jailbreak before and did a dump of the hex keys, you can still retrieve it by decrypting it with PC, but needs a lot of steps.
