That's not always the case. DLC is stored in game data, so you should take note of that if you have games like LBP, Dead Space, or Rock Band, which use game data.

I would highly recommend you use the backup utility on the PS3 to back up your stuff. You'll need an external drive formatted in FAT32, though.
