It would probably best to send it in but if you do have a warranty with a store then it would be faster to get a new console. Yes sir you can backup everything on your current HDD and restore it on your new PS3’s HDD when you receive it you will need a external HDD big enough to store all the data connect the external to the PS3 and in your XMB go to settings- system settings – backup utility and click backup hope this helped
