PS3 Problem...can I backup my stuff?

Okay, so I encountered a somewhat-common problem with my new PS3...it stopped reading BD discs. After trying a lot, I am returning it.

However, I connected my external USB hard drive, and did the 'backup' of the files onto the hard drive. My question now, is, with the new PS3, will all of my game data be saved? (i.e. my COD campaign status, and my multiplayer online status).

Will my PSN tag work with the new PS3, and will I be able to retrieve my online information (ie, my rank in Call of Duty).?

Thanks!

I keep all of my saves backed up on my CF card. You don't need to back up any purchases from the PSN store as it is all available to redownload. Your PSN account is tied to you and not the console so it should be easy to get it up and running on your new one.
