Bring it to a repair shop..

Sounds like a bad hard disk. You might try to format the disk. If that does not help, you will have to purchase a new one.

Your HARD DRIVE (aka: Hard Disk), located on the left side of the unit, has crashed. You will need to replace the HD.

When you replace your hard drive, you will need to have the latest firmware on a

usb stick. Download the firmware from the playstation official website onto a usb

stick. Once prompted by your system you will need to insert the usb stick into the

PS3. Good luck..

You will need 2.5" Sata Hard Drive.

If you are getting the corrupted drive message this means that you have corrupted data on the hard drive or there is something wrong with the hard drive. If you have tried the built in repair options and they do not work then you will need to format the hard drive with an externally with a computer. The link below will help you do this.

Bad sector or MBR on Hard drive needs replacing

maybe your hard drive is damaged or currupting files when you try to write on your Hdd...try another sata hdd and restore your ps3 system to test if it´s a hardware or conection bad function problem...Good Luck!!!

You Have An Error In The Motherboard And Will Have To Get it Either Serviced By A Qualified Technician Or Replaced By The Supplier

There is an alternate way to restore your HDD. Turn off your system and when u see the red light, hold the power button in front until you hear a total of 4 beeps (1 alone, 1 alone, 2 together). It usually works on second try. it should show a screen and say hook up controller with a usb cord. Then it should show i think 6 options. Choose the restore option. it should work.

Hope it works and wish you all the best!
P.S.- I just got the 80010514 error on my ps3 and my ps3 games dont work anymore :(

it may be your clicking ok too many times, the playstation three may need a new harddisk if so phione playstation and another thing is that you could have to much memory in your ps3.
