Rebuilding the PS3 database scans your hard drive to create a fresh index of all installed content. It is like "defragmenting" a PC hard drive, helping the system find files faster and fixing issues like:
Plug in your DualShock 3 controller via USB cable and press the PS button.
Fixing minor file system glitches without deleting your games or save data. Method 1: The Native Recovery Menu (No Download Required)
Rebuilding the database will delete any game data that is corrupt or incomplete. For example, if you had a partially downloaded PKG that never finished installing, it will be erased. This is a good thing , but be aware: you might need to redownload that game.
