Pretty sure x360 rgh hdd upgrade is easier but I've only done it once.

I've always done it that way.

You can pull 500gb drives from junk pvr's and the like, that's how I got most of mine.

He could back stuff up and revert to OFW and then reinstall CFW after but I don't think it's worth the trouble.

Yeah it isn't overly difficult, but I think it is easier to upgrade x360 rgh hdd. You're pretty much just copying drive contents :shrug: Takes a little while but you can always pop original drive back in anyway.. you can swap out internal drives without reformatting them.

A shame the PS3 isn't that simple :wacko:.

Just be a dick, order the thing you want plus a game preorder to push you up to free shipping (USA still has that, right?), then when your thing has shipped cancel the game preorder :wacko:

I did come across a cheap used case on ebay don't know if it's a full ATX case or not though I didn't look elsewhere yet.

I do have a 250gb(or maybe it was 500gb I don't remember) that I took out of me dead SS and had been using as an external. I see a lot of conflicting
answers there some say to use the built in backup and restore and just install the cfw pup others say to manually backup folders with the file manager and others saying to use rebugs debug to backup and restore

I don't think you can do that anymore because they force a prime trial(or membership) to get the free shipping. I could be wrong since I haven't ordered anything in a while over $25 that was sold and shipped by them directly.

ok so it looks like this asshole seller is trying to drag shit out. he responded late yesterday and upped his refund offer to $7.50 then sends me another message asking me to close my return ticket and they'll send me a new one.
at this point I just want a full refund I'll look for a better keyboard at another time.

Don't listen to him, do not close the return ticket in these circumstances.

nope. I might consider it after I get a full refund. looks like I might get my adapter today that'd be so nice if I do.

Yeah that's a ploy to try and scam you into keeping the item for no refund. Like DL said do not close the ticket.

Oh and I hope you enjoy the PS3 Grouch. A nice machine for sure and I already easily made money on it selling off the included games and controllers. :banana:
