    Since my thread must have been deleted while the forum was changing, i thought i would ask again!

    Well since i am a complete noob on ps tools i want to know if there is a way to backup my devs hdds without theirs sdks and through ftp if possible!

    I want to backup their data and if there are any games in them.

    I am interested in ps2 tools and their external hard disks and ps3 debugs.

    Thanks for any responds... ;-)

    I replied on that thread you don't need to worry about the DTL-H20400 as it's extremely likely to be empty, even.

    The DTL-T10000 is a completely different case and backuping it's HDD(s) is a pretty wise thing to do.

    I know absolutely nothing about PS3 DEV hardware. But then I have the impression it's easy to recover from a HDD crash on the PS3 TEST units at least.

    Well for the PS3 you'd need the SDK tools AFAIK.
    At least I don't know any way to access anything on the HDD without them.

    Then again, there's nothing really critical on a debug PS3's HDD.
    The firmware is in the flash, only userdata is on the HDD:
