i noticed my stock 120 giger for my slim, now laggy. I left my PS3 with my brother, he told me he cant even play Shank. Then I tried god of war 3, stutters like pirated media in the opening credit. sad.gif but not all games like that, only those which depend on the HDD. so, i backed up my data using the Back Up Utility onto my external HDD, which took like 3 hours of 72 gigs of data. I reformated the PS3 hdd. and then I restore the data back, ... from midnite last nite, and when I woke up this morning, still got 7% to go.. jezzzz THAT long.. later I balik I will update whether this solved the stuttering problem or not. lucky next week I am shopping either a 50giger or 750..

Huh? Yours is a 120GB HDD system, right?

yes bro

It came off as a 120GB as stock, right?


yup stock hdd from Sony

What makes it "laggy" when it comes to play certain games? The more we discussed matters here, the more things I've learnt from time to time.

I noticed games from PSN which are installed in the HDD is a bit laggy, and yesterday I tried God Of War 3 also laggy. Even browsing the XMB also laggy. My avi movies also stutter. Really annoying.
QUOTE
Hmmm, should I just stick to 500GB HDD when the next round comes in December?

I am planning to upgrade next week to 750, all the way! :yay: Ultimately, should that also wont solve the problem, I will just bring my PS3 to Sony nod.gif

This is my advice, if you wish to keep your VITAL details intact.(provided you dont have a big ass USB storage)

You will need a USB storage with the latest PS3 firmware in ROOT/PS3/UPDATE , at least 8bg. (if that you dont have, stop playing ps3 and buy a DS)

1. Synch all of the trophies. All accounts. You need to be online to do this.

2. Back up all your Photos, music and movies, either batch by batch to your PC OR delete them all.

3. Delete the game utilities instals.

4. Delete the PSN games.

5. Now you should have very minimal data, go to System Settings

6. Go to Utilities -- backup utilities

7. Insert your FAT32 formatted USB storage.

8. Choose BACKUP ALL DATA (or something like that)

9. Wait for it to finish. Once finished, take out the HDD and put the new one.

10.Once powered up, the PS3 will prompt you to format the HDD or not. If you choose NO, GTFO.

11.The after that, PS3 will ask you to put the USB storage with the latest firmare, so slam the sucker in the slot.

12.Firmware updating, and for God's sake, please wait for it to be finished.

13.After the process, the system will restart.

14.Go to Utilies, restore, and select restore. RESTORE ALL DATA.

15.Then the PS3 will have all the save data with the multiple accounts inside.

16.Redownload back the patches and the updates as well as the PSN games. Trophies? Synch them back to reobtain them.

This is MY GUIDE, and its working well for me. You guys may take this as a refference.

Gamers with big ass HDD USB storage can skip step 2 to 4 and step 16.
