So after being a PS Plus member for about a year or so my 320gb HD is now filled so I watched a youtube video that showed how to back up your old drive and install the new one and it's really really easy considering you have everything needed.
So, I bought a 1TB drive off Newegg and am waiting for it to arrive. I don't have a external hard drive so I can't back my current drive up which is fine, I don't mind redownloading everything even though it will take forever.
Most game saves are pretty small but there are a few (WWE 13 for example) where it's nearly 4gb. No, not Game Data. GAME SAVES. Due to this ridiculous size it can't be uploaded to cloud storage. I formatted my 8gb flash drive to FAT32 and the PS3 detects the USB drive but it won't let me back any of my saves to the flash drive. NONE of them. It says it's unauthorized. I've even read that this is possible to do so I really don't understand whats going on. Did this change with a firmware update or something?
Luckily most game saves are not to big so I can put those in the cloud but these large ones I'd like to back up somehow.
Any help is appreciated.
