Hi, I'm new to the PS3 world. Just got my new 160gb slim ps3. I have done a lot of reading about the jailbreaking and am thinking about doing it to my new console. I just have a few questions that perhaps you guys can help answer. When I install the Custom fw kmeaw 3.55, does that get installed onto the internal hdd of the ps3? My thought is, if I go out and buy a second hdd(maybe a 500gb) and install the kmeaw 3.55 on the 500gb along with all the backup games and update the 160gb that came with the ps3 to 3.56. Would I be able to switch the hdd's back and forth? Like, when I don't plan to go online, I can use the 500gb with the custom fw, and when I do plan to use the PSN, I can put in the 160gb hdd with the 3.56fw. Is that possible? Or am I crazy?

No, the custom firmware doesn't get installed onto the internal harddrive, only some folders are created on it. It gets installed on a flash memory inside the PS3.

Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.
