Is it safe to delete some folders on internal ps3 hdd?

I need to gain some free space on my internal ps3 hdd in order to install more games, so is it safe to delete some folders on internal ps3 hdd? Namely: dev_hdd0/temp: there are total of 20 GB of data. Also, dev_ps2disc/ps3_EXTRA - there are total of 11 gb of data. What are those folders for, and can I delete them (or files in them) safely, or are they absolutely necessary and if I delete them, something breaks?

Hello @Zoroak-Q6R . You'll notice your post count has been dramatically reduced, so I'll get right to it. If you want to be treated as a spambot, i'll treat you like one, but be warned it's a point of no return. Have a nice day.

Everyone else, carry on.

Just please dont do it again, be lucky i didnt take further action. Read the rules real quick if you must, we're laid back but we dont take sh*t from no one. Make up meaningful conversations if you must but remember anything in the off topic threads doesnt increase your count.

Go to gamedata on xmb and delete the files from games you don't play anymore that is the safest and easiest way.

I have already deleted everything that way, but uncharted wasn't there.
