Iv now backed up and restored to new 500gb hard drive, mate wants my old 120gb drive. Is there any reason I'll ever need the old drive again ?
Just checking before I give it him ..

[Cloudedpaul]

i stuck mine in hdd case and now use it as a external drive on my ps3, other than that, no!

I'd probablly keep it for the same reason as Cloud said. But if he's a good friend and in need.......

[kingchaz]

If you ever have a system problem and need sony to sort it out you will need the original harddrive when you send it off, so i think Cloudedpaul has the best idea

basically this^

if you send a ps3 to sony they will send you a ps3 back with the size hdd in it that was in originaly so its best to keep it aropund if only to chuck back in if you ever have to send it of

Yeah as long as it's under Warranty i wouldn't touch it....if it's going back to them i would rather they have the Stock HDD than the 1Tb it has.

But once the Warranty is out, definitely use it. Why not as they say
