As you know my ps3 is dying, and I get a replacement on tuesday, but now I can't even backup.
Just give an error and shuts down.
I knew the hdd was going, and the bluray wont spin, but not even able to backup?
I do have a backup on my pc though, so if all else fails i can use that, but it's 2 months old.

Does anyone know the process? Dont I have to deactivate this one and reactivate the new one?
