Someone plz help me with My ps3 account?

My problem is i'm gonna buy a new ps3 but I've used my ps3 acount on 2 other ps3s I've owned which both broke My fat one YLOD and the graphics card on my slim gave out and neither can be turned on. This is a problem because you can only download your stuff on 2 different ps3s. So in order to download it on my new ps3 im gonna buy i would have to deactivate my account off one of my old ps3s but since i can't do that because neither are able to turn on whats my solution. Once a ps3 breaks is the acount data still considered on the system? If not i think the only solution is two maybe swap the hardrives with a old one to the new one i'm buying a super slim so are any old hardrives compatible with the new one? Should i call playstation?

    Call Sony about your dilemma and they will definitely be able to help you out and fix it for you. You just have to explain what happened and they'll have no problems deactivating anything for you.

    As for HDD's, the Superslim still uses the same type of HDD as the other PS3's. Which are 2.5" Serial ATA (aka SATA) 5400RPM HDD's. Maximum size supported by PS3's are 650GB. I suggest NOT buying a Superslim though. Everything about it overall is CHEAPER than ANY other PS3 made, and yet it's MORE EXPENSIVE than the Slim. That's bullsh*t honestly. Get yourself a new 160GB Slim while you can because they don't make them anymore and they are by far the best PS3 models ever made and the most durable as long as you aren't an idiot with it and unplug it while it's on and just don't take care of it and such.

    I actually just bought a 160GB yesterday and I already have a 120GB Slim that's 4 years old now, and still works flawlessly. My 120GB has actually survived the YLOD (I have NO IDEA how, but I'm not complaining. The Slim models are definitely the best, and the 160GB is slightly better than the 120GB too because of a slight hardware change.)

    Hope that helps.
