How to Access the Memory Chip in a PS3

A PS3 memory chip allows you to save game progress, unlocked items and much more, and is good for keeping your settings and saves portable, in case you want to take it to a friend's house. The system already has a hard drive built in, but many people like having something small and light to store their data on. Once you access your memory chip you can delete files, copy them to another device, or play music and other media.
