(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello NGU members, I have just purchased a ps3 on 3.55 cfw from eBay. Any advice on what to do when I get it? or what to install? I have never had a jb ps3 so I'm new to this and it is an 80gb so can I install owned games to an external hard drive?

Depends on what you want to do? Mod lobbies(there's always a chance of getting console banned) then you have to choose between CEX or DEX CFW? or simply backup games:yes: Or all of the above lol. Goggle is your best friend to find what you need and how to do it,I suggest look at all the post that NGU has they have all your answers.Good luck broDancing Turtle

Dex for real time modding that's the only good way

Yes sir, but it is always a good idea to leave a game in the drive at all times. Doesn't have to be the actual game in the drive but just have a random game in the drive. You wanna make it seems that you are playing a game from the BD when going online.
