Is the ps3 80gb CECHL03 backwards compatible?

NO it is not. The only PS3 80 GB model that was backward compatible was CECHE. It was the last PS3 model that was backward compatible. Even the PS3 40 GB models CECHG and CHECHH were not backward compatible. The related link for Playstation support provides details on the different models

Does the PS3 80GB backwards compatible?

Only the ones with 4 USB ports released in August 2007 are and the other PS3 80 GB models released beginning in August 2008 are not


Can you buy a PS3 that is not backwards and make it backwards compatible?

yes No you can not turn a PS3 into a Backwards Compatible PS2 game player. That's why the demand for older Backwards Compatible PS3 models with the 4 USB ports has increased the resale value. If you could make a Backwards Compatible PS3 Slim 250 GB why would someone pay as much for an old PS3 with an unknown history that might have been repaired many times.


PS3 model CECHH00 any suggestions for how to get the cheapest backwards compatible PS3 preferably through a retailer who could work a trade-in deal?

Yes If you want a PS3 that is the best and cheapest buy the 20 GB model The 80 GB models do not play as many PS2 titles and the 60 GB models can cost more than a new 320 GB with the PS Move Bundle
