I have an 120gb Slim system wth OFW 3.56, and attempted to swap my original 120gb drive for an 500gb WD hdd.
Now, when i turn on the system, nothing appears on the screen and after 15-20 seconds the system shuts down.
And, guess what? I have accidentally formated my original HDD.
Any ideas? or i have now a beautifull bricked ps3?:embarrassed:
Thanks for the help, guys!

I'm trying to enter in Recovery menu, but never get's to it. It's possible to enter in recovery menu even in 3.56 firmware?

Is the hardrive you're using a 5400rpm 2.5" ? it needs to be these requirements for the PS3.
