`I want to upgrade my HDD and I don`t quite remember what version i installed (DEX, CEX, PEX)
After installing the new drive can i just choose any of them? (PEX is probably the one I want to go for). Or should I download a version and install on the new and old drive?

I did find a solution. Probably not the quickliest way but it did work.
I tried having both the ofw and cfw on usb stick (on seperate occasions) after swaping the hdd. The ps3 booted into safety mode and could not find any firmware on the stick.

Then I connected the old and the new drive into Linux and used the dd command and cloned the old drive. After this the ps3 booted into evilnat but I had to format the new drive. So to get my old games and savefiles I had to export the old drive to third drive and import that into the new drive. Took some serious time, but than again that is what I really remember for playing ps3 back in the days. Lots of waiting and updates

    the indie games on wii u were amazing though

    and also some of nintendo's first party games
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    some of the best selling games on the switch are wii u ports (that are priced way too high
    like come on 60 for a game thats a decade old??)

    @ColdBlitz, i forgot breath of the wild released for the Wii u
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Non-binary people are those who don't identify themselves exclusively as male or female.
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I don't identify as anything, unless I need to get on a plane then I show ID

    @SylverReZ, and thus that would make me non binary since i feel like a blend of both male and female
