Hmm, There has to be a way to disable HDD encryption. then you could use it on any ps3 (not firmware dependant)

I'll leave it to the dev's. This is as far as I can go for now.

get a mod to close this thread if it is of no use.

there is a way to disable HDD encryption its called a ps3 on cfw

look even if we could disable HDD encryption from a pc . a ps3 on ofw wont be able to use that hardrive becuse it will just formate it . the ps3 wont know what to do with it , it will look like a pile of junk to it lol

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember reading that, using "ps3dm_sm set_del_def_encdec_key" doesn't technically disable encryption, it just changes the encryption key from eg "wwww xxxx yyyy zzzz" to "0000 0000 0000 0000" or something along those lines. So "disabling encryption" like that would allow you to use the same hdds in different ps3s as long as they've all had those encryption keys nulled, but it wouldn't make those hdds readable in pcs.
I'm not sure that's entirely true, but I just remember reading about it a while ago in some chan.

If anyone can correct me, please go ahead.

That's the same info i've read. Someone said it could be used as wip to develope further. I've read it on ps3cruch. Also he mentioned some prepatched fws to test but not without hardware flasher. I'm in search now for these...

ohh so it's the playstation not the hdd.
so basically it's kinda like php passwording coding.

$READHDD = SONYENCR($HDD)

so even if it was undone, it'd read it like that.



WAIT what if we
disable encryption, and change the files/patches we want to hdd, then encrypt it again??
