You're Goddamn Right
- Its a PS3 Slim 120gb
- Im currently on 4.21 Rebug
I tried the HDD in and get this msg:
You must login or register to view this content. (but says 4.21)
So what steps should i take? I believe on slims, part of the FW is on the HDD if im correct. So its probably not the best idea to do this on 4.21.
k, thanks
