    I usually feel like these preloaded drives are a rip off but this one seems to be really nice. it's not just a messy dump of ROMs. It's got all the front ends screenshots, themes, videos, etc.. I think it's really worth it to have a turn key set up like this. I have a pretty extensive collection of ROMs and I still would consider buying this just so I don't have to go through the hassle of setting all the crap up and scraping the screenshots and stuff.

The truth is stuff like launchbox makes setup practically automatic outside of the time locating and downloading games. And another issue is a crap ton of emulation boxes, plex boxes, android boxes, chinese mini pcs, and kodi boxes are loaded with Trojan horses, viruses, and backdoors. There is no excuse for such utter lameness. 👎

      You are only wasting your money buying these cheap drives off Amazon and other sites. Not because the games or copies, that is just the lowest part.
      These drives they use are cheap, used and do not last long. The constant use on them as well, makes these basically worthless. You are basically paying $100+ for some files that need to be moved ASAP.
      Do it yourself, save the time and money AND you get the satisfaction of having a game list catered to specifically you.

      TBH, Lauchbox is so capable and easy to setup... you are much better off downloading romsets and building your own launchbox drive. It wont be filled full of junk roms in foreign languages that way.
      Buying other peoples build hasnt made sense in a long time. Hyperspin was such a huge pain in the ass to setup and took so long to get media/configs handled, that it was far more worthwhile to pay for someone else's build than spend 80 hours on your own. But with Launchbox, after you've downloaded the roms and put them where they belong, you can have your full build setup and config'd in just an hour or two.

      I fully support this statement. People will spend a ton of money on pre-configured drives, and most will never play but 5 to 10% of the games up there. I remember I made a 3TB passport drive with Bactocera on it, and decided to see if people would rather pay than do it themselves. And wouldn't you know, I charged a ridiculous price on top of that, 500$. Within 8 hours I had a sale.
      It's very easy to build your own collection, without the junk titles. And yet, I promise you this thing the Chinese make will simply give them that much more money.

      Download the chd file for the game you wish to play, drop the chd file in the same folder that has the game rom in it. Make sure the chd file and game rom file have the same name, and then you're all set.

    • @recce555ify
      @recce555ify Рік тому

      From what I understand, the emulator should load the full ISO into RAM (assuming you have 16GB or more) and then run from there, so SSD will only improve on the initial loading speed of the ISO file.
      Game performance is mostly determined by what system/CPU is running the games.

      I saw another youtube review of this product mentioning that this comes with US versions of the games with no duplicates, meaning this is already better than most of the products out there that simply dump all games and duplicates into the HDD.

      No. I see lots of people here are confused on how these things work. The drive just holds the games and the media files. Think of it of copying a song to a CD. The Drive is the CD in this example. You need a computer (CD Player) capable of running the games (Songs on the CD) still.
      If you want to run this on a TV, its impossible, but you CAN take a modern PC, and hook it up to your TV, then hook the drive up to that same PC, and play all these games on your PC over your TV. But yeah, a lot of people are confusing this hard-drive with a computer, and its not that.

      It is just a standard USB HDD, why would there be excess rights problem? Unless you're using an office PC with USB port restrictions, that means other USB HDD will also have the same problem.
