I tried a couple of times to make https://www.reddit.com/r/cuttingedgegaming/ happen, but never reached many people. This community seems to mostly folks playing 1-2 year old games, I wonder if there are more of us who are playing older (but not “retro”) games, particularly PC games?

    Nice, I never knew that! Was this an official thing at the time or has someone reverse engineered it later?

      It was an official thing, and the only way to play Final Fantasy XI, since the game had to receive updates. The HDD has to be a 3.5" SATA drive to slot in properly. I looked around for one adapter 3.5 to SD adapter, but finding a used 500gb drive was cheaper.
