Hi Guys, new user here.
I have PS3 with 3.15 on it. Should I update to 3.55 & then to custom firmware or is their anyway to install something else since I have 3.15?

If I use CW 3.55 will I loose ability for "Other OS"?
I don't play games much, use it to watch streaming videos from my desktop, downloaded movies or Internet streaming. I was told long time back that in order to support most video codecs, I have to use 3rd party player in Linux to play these movies?

Also I have 2T USB HDD, single partition in FAT32. Current 3.15 does not recognized it, it that supported in CW 3.55?

What would be the best route for me since I have 3.15 on my PS3?


Also, if I use CW 3.55, should I use
(FW 3.4+) MEGA package__: multiMAN 01.16.13 (454MB - 2008 COVERS, 49 THEMES) (ebootMOD ebootFIX lastGAME ps3SERV)

on it?



Regards

Well if you want to play the latest games (post 3.15 but pre 3.56) then update.
You do lose otheros in a way, but graf has bought it back, I dont use linux but it you google abestos for ps3 you will find how to install linux back onto any ps3 including slims.

I dont know if there is much different between using otheros or abestos, that you'd have to look up, but I am guessing abestos is better. You will have to check yourself if you are familiar with linux.
