Regarding video game consoles with internal HDDs, do we know if they benefit from any sort HDD maintenance? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 48 minutes ago

For a PS3? I'd replace the spinner with an SSD. It's fairly easy, just be sure to follow a guide as there are steps that have to be taken. I don't think you can brick it, but you can make it harder on yourself. It only very mildly improves loads in a small list of games, but spinning disks from that era are on their way out. For other ones, I'm less sure. If you can replace an HDD with an SSD, do. But some won't work with one, like the OG Xbox.

I don't imagine that any preventative maintenance will really help. Your main issue will be just hitting the end of their lifespan.

Living on the other side of the country to everyone I'm related to pays dividends once again.

Of course there is the downside of massive loneliness, but hey, you win some you lose some.
