Okay. I suppose I won't use DB then, since I hardly play online anyway. How big does the HDD have to be? Does it even have to be a HDD? Can I use a 16GB USB stick? And what exactly would I put on the HDD? Homebrew apps? Themes? Mods?

Homebrew has to be installed, you can't run it from a USB stick.

The only PS3 without a HDD is the 12gb superslim. If you have one of those then CFW isn't an option anyway, all indications are that you would have to redo the exploit every time you turn it on. You'd be able to install homebrew on the 12gb, but you probably would want a hdd eventually.

I don't bother with very large hard drives in PS3's anymore, as it's easier to stream iso's from a PC/NAS. If you play a lot of games then updates and saves take space though, minimum drive I'd go for is 160gb. Some people however decide to fit 1.5tb drives (I think this is still the largest you can use)

Uugh, this is complicated. So, I need an HDD and not a big usb drive? Then it's definitely not worth it, though it would be nice to play minecraft mods or something. What would you put on the hdd besides games that's so big?

It's most likely going to be fw specific, but I would hold off just to be sure.

can I update my ps3 offline if I already downloaded a firmware update?, turns out I'm still in 4.80 but the 4.81 update has already been downloaded automatically.

I have like 4 PS3's lying around that I want to update to 4.81. Could I just leave them off and use an update file to update them later when I am ready to exploit them? I can kill the internet when the time comes so it does not auto update.
