Yeah, I was also wondering about that when people started talking about it... My mind thought back to when the PS3 was being announced and remember something about the PS3 being Linux based somewhere somehow in the system.... Thanks for reminding me of this. o7 +1
HYENAKILLER X TEAM SHINOBI 222	Posted - 2013.08.26 20:31:00 - [3] - Quote Then why is it there as an option, and why is it everytime I do it I get a prompt saying that I have corrupt files?

Kiiran-B Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 119	Posted - 2013.08.26 20:49:00 - [5] - Quote Isn't rebuilding database on the Ps3 similar to de-fraging a pc?
Ynned Ivanova Bragian Order Amarr Empire 52	Posted - 2013.08.26 21:00:00 - [6] - Quote I wouldn't think so, no matter what platform its o n a database is a database is a database. They can get corrupted like any file. Defragging (on a windows pc) moves the data, so if you're using a program its not looking all over the hard drive for it, it prolongs the hard drives life. PS jason my alt appreciated the logi praise.

PS jason my alt appreciated the logi praise. Actually I just had it come up as I lost power at my place. I believe rebuilding the database is somewhat similar to either file checking the disk or actually rewriting the core of the system saved on some hardcoded CMOS or whatever that thing is that has hard encoded memory. In any case, I think it acts more as a fail safe rather than a defrag.

Just a note of warning, I came across several sources that say you can only do this *FIVE TIMES* to a given system. In other words, since you have done it once (from the sound of it), you can now only do it four more times.

The infact you have a chance of completely frying your system if you do that fan technique. The file system restore is good to do though.

Apparently that's some sort of restore option? I had a problem a problem with my ps3 where my games werent reading correctly (as in not playing) and in fact, the blu ray lense was burned out. The operator told me by using that option, it would remove any files that were corrupt, not to fix them. The only main targets that the option restores is the patch updates that come with the game, whether its corrupted or not, the notification saying," PS3 files are corrupted" always comes up. Happy mythical defrag lies everypne
