Try to format the hdd by putting it onto yout computer, if you only have one hdd slot, but have a build in dvd player, you can unplug that one and plug in the ps3s hdd, them quickformat it and boot ps3 and it will tell you to reinstall the firmware
I had the same issue and solved it by formatting with pc
