Re: How-To: Speed Up Your PS3 by Rebuilding Your Hard Disk Database

Lol, i have never done it, i havnt ever had a prompt to do it when i switch it on, nothing, didnt even know you could to be honest :smileytongue: My XMB is quite slow when i access it while playing a game, does it help that? and the friends list is really really slow to load (although i think that has something to do with my connection speed). If i can fit all of my stuff (just over 250gb at last count) onto my external HDD for backup then ill give it a go

Just did this today cause I was getting a lot of freezes.
I have to say that my XMB is unbelievably faster than before. It feels fresh.

Just make sure you do a backup before you start.
