Changement d'un disque dur HS sur ps3 slim

Good evening,

I'm coming back to you for a fairly precise answer if possible.

I'm going to get a ps3 slim with a dead HDD, but I don't know at all its history.

Knowing that when I put in another HDD, I'll need to do an update, but not knowing which one to do, hoping it's a 3.40 (since no update has been done via internet, but maybe through games), what would happen if I try to install a version lower than the one present in the NAND?

It just doesn't work. But when you change the hdd it gets formatted. Nothing more. So no need to do an update

Thanks Oops for your quick reply.

But I had the case on a fat, I got it disk-dead, the guy had simply wanted to do I don't know what and it was in NTFS... So I reformatted it to FAT32, and I had to install a firmware, 4.31 there because I knew the ps3's history.

Between the moment I asked my question and now I dug around on google, and I see that indeed there's no update to do.

There I admit I don't quite understand.

Edit: I just changed the hard drive, and you have to install a firmware, the version is shown when the ps3 asks for it, for me 4.11 :? .
So there, problem solved
