Simple Answer the hard drivers have nothing to do with you being on 3.55 or 3.50... your ps3 system is the one with the firmware not the hard drives

Yes, i recommend you to downgrade and hack your ps3 but you are free to decide. You might format it first (The PS3 will ask you IDK)

Firmware is not on the HDD.
So in short, no you cant downgrade.
Once you updated to 3.55, theres no going back.
