Another hurdle is the hard drive game DATA is secured & encrypted to your specific console what that means is if you insert your existing hard drive into another ps3 console it will erase & format the hard disc all data will be lost not good if you have many hours of game play even photos & movies are all lost If the data is critical to you then you have no option but to get your PS3 repaired Usual repair of the Yellow light Of Death is same day essential to book a day & time
Once the repair is done your data will all be there then its time to back it up through a external USB
formatted to the FAT 32 File system

The only way to get your game stored data back is if your console is starting up then you have the option of back utility in the menu of the PS3 only then the backed up data can be restored into another PS3 console
