For those who want to know: He wanted to upgrade by plugging the HDD into the computer and transfer everything over to the new Hard Drive. BIG MISTAKE! The HDD would not show up in My Computer, so we went to Disk Management and it asked if we wanted to create a MBR (Master Boot Record) we said yes and we later found out that it had overwrote the system boot up part of the disk. So after we gave up and put the HDD back in the PS3, it asked us to put in a External Drive with the latest firmware and it will reformat the drive. So we bring the HDD over to a friends' and see if he could get it working, after about 5 hours of work, no luck. Although we were able to recover a few files with some extensions I've never heard even heard of before. Here's a picture of what we've recovered:

So we're both basically starting from scratch. On the bright side, we now have a bigger, faster Hard Drive and we upgraded our internet late last month.
