(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi, I've had my CFW PS3 for awhile now and I realized that a 40GB hard drive just isn't enough. I'm planning on purchasing a new 160GB hard drive off of eBay and putting it in my CFW PS3. I was just wondering how can I install it without losing CFW? I'm on Rogero 4.55 and the PS3 is a phat model if that helps. Any help would be appreciated.

5b. Press START+SELECT to start the format setup
6. Start installing all the other stuff from the other hdd
