Backing Up Memory
Does anyone know of a good memory device that I can use to back up all my memory on my PS3? I have alot of music, games, photos, and other things on my drive that if for some reason decided to crash, would all be lost. I would like to back it up on something, but I don't know what is good or not so good to use to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

back up to USB-drive
Have backed up 8Gb of data to a 40G USB-Drive, no probs. Only issue in advance was to ensure partition on USB drive was FAT32....

The backup fomat is proprietary - so can supposedly only be used back on a PS3.... unless someone has some idea of how to sort out the content within the .dat files ...

well, I don't really need to put the data into anythingelse. I just want to back up everything that's already there. That way if it crashes or something, I won't be upset for losing everything that I put on it. I mean there is alot of saved game data, besides the game data, there is games that I have paid for and downloaded. I mean what will Sony tell me? Oh sorry, go ahead and buy all that stuff again. I don't think so.
