They will most likely send you a new 60GB so yes, you should copy all your files to your computer or something.

I actually haven't sent in my ps3 myself, but no worries, Sony has an excellent customer service program with their repairs from what I've heard. Actually, almost no doubt in my mind that if you send your ps3 by tommorow, you will recieve your new ps3 before GTA4 and MGS 4.
Hope that helped :D

I think Sony is a reputable company, I wouldn't be worried.

Sent my 60 gig back last week,called them and 2 days later the guy arrived to pick it up and passed me my new 60 gig ...well refurb but brand new shell,plus 3 month warranty. Backup ya pics vids and music,also ya game save data onto HDD (USB) or SD card,any games purchased can be downloaded again as long as you use same SN etc. format the drive but they do that anyway.

This is kind of off topic, but is it guaranteed that you will get a 60GB, if that's the one you sent in? Do they usually repair it or just send you a new one? Cause as far as I know 60GB's aren't in production anymore. Just wondering because I own a 60GB and that's the only way I'll go.

They have to give you what you paid for by law or full cash back.

I dropped off my 60 gig PS3 at the UPS Store today. Sony promised the standard 10-14 business days. I'll let you know when I get mine back.

Also, I'm on my third Xbox 360 and when I heard the horror stories of Microsoft taking at least a month to repair/replace 360's I just took it back to the store (Game Crazy) and they gave me a new one there both times, but when I tried to take back my PS3 to the same store, they freaked out and said that Sony would sue them if they exchanged it. Anyone know if there is any truth to Sony filing a lawsuit over that? I'm guessing the guy working there was ill-informed.
