(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi i was wondering are you able to put a hard drive from a ps3 on 3.60 ofw in to a ps3 on 3.55 cfw. I know this might be stupid question but don’t want to risk updating my 3.55 ps3. Also if it is it possible to merge to ps3 backups together i mean when you backup your ps3 it creates a file on your hard drive called PS3 and if you had another backup if you merged the files together will it you get your files form both ps3s on one again this might be a stupid question.

Yes You can put Your 3.60 Hdd to your 3.55 ps3, that won´t update your ps3 because the firmware it´s storaged on the Nand

Even if you can, when you put a hard drive in another ps3 , it formats completely.
