This provides descriptions of damaged hard drives and how to know what is wrong with them the best that can be explained in an hour.

This is part of what I teach in my classes. if you want to know more about the classes see myharddrivedied website or search for my name and SANS. PS: Sorry about the video quality, its not my fault.

OFF TOPIC USB ISO LOADER FOR PS2 GAMES ON YOUR PS3… www.tehskeen.com Ifcaro has released his latest build of USB Loader v0.3 RC1 for the Sony Playstation 3. Using this Loader along with a particular version of the Swap Magic disk for the PS2 you can load your legal PS2 backup collection using a USB Mass Storage device. Note that this doesn’t work on newer PS3 models and is limited to those that were initially sold at launch. More detailed information can be found here. This new version is said to fix some issues with problem games and comes with two elf’s (PS2 executables) one of which is an experimental version of the loader. How i did this: First of all you need to source 2 applications…A app to decrypt dvds and a app to back them up ( I use 1click dvd and Anydvd decrypter) so you can backup the dvd to your PC…After you have your dvd backup in a folder on the pc…you then transfer the folder to any portable storage device with 5 gigs or more…(I use a western digital USB hard drive 320 gigs 70$ at walmart) At this point i will be assuming you have dragged and dropped the folder containing the dvd backup onto the storage device…Next plug in the device to your ps3 USB port on the front…it should show up SO LONG AS THE DEVICE IS IN FAT OR FAT32 if it does not show up you will HAVE TO FORMAT IT IN FAT that said just follow my lead in this video from this point and you will get the picture….hope this was helpful
