[quote name='breakfuss']I'm thinking of doing the same. I read (in this thread, actually) that if you do a backup, and simply restore the games to another HDD, you won't lose the phantoms. I could be mistaken, though. Would appreciate if anyone could clarify![/QUOTE]
While I didn't have any phantoms, I believe my resells carried over without a fuss (no reactivation required). It was three years ago thou, so I may be mistaken. The backup/restore takes a LOT of time, so delete anything you don't absolutely need beforehand.
