I think this is great for anyone starting out in emulation or even if you have a few collections. If you've ever tried to get a hold of collections before, especially systems like Teknoparrot and Atomiswave to name a few, then you know what a headache it can be. The configurations for those emulators can also be a minefield. This is great to just have those collection's available in one place which you can then set up how you want. Is it worth $300?

I bought an 18TB drive for a seller on Etsy but it had no switch, PS4 or Xbox 360. It did have the entire Dreamcast, ps1, 2, Xbox, Psp, Wii, and the lower end collections. I have yet to go through everything on it but it has a lot. I might still get this for the 360 games and the forbidden fruit (switch). I’d advise if you decide to get it to backup the drive. It’s not a huge investment but I’d rather put it on a brand new drive. I’d also play around like Drew said and make your own collection. You have the games so you could put something together. There are a lot of cool front ends out there.
lol, plug n play. Hyperspin is not plug n play. You will most likely have to configure a lot of emulators and install virtual disk software. I purchased one of these types of hypespin drives back in the day. I spent a week auditing roms and fixing directory structures to get it to work. By the end of the week i could have just built my own. That's good because you will need to know how hyperspin needs to work if you ever want to update anything or make changes. Some games are more compatible with certain versions of emulators etc. You will at least need to learn what emulator HS is using so you can look up what buttons need to be pressed to get into the configuration menu.
Just because it has a preview video running doesn’t mean the game actually runs properly. I bet half of these once opened up to play the game comes up with errors. They’re all copies of free builds on arcade punks that people who have no idea how to set them up just sell them as “plug and play” which they’re not.
The best thing we had as kids was almost no choice. I have two kids and when you give them 20 things to do, it's "BSOD" in their head and they just run away. When i give them 2 choices, they want to do both, eventually choose one and we agree to do the other next time
That's a great point. Growing up we had a Nintendo with like 3 games and a Sega with maybe 4 and you got every cent out of those games because it's all you had
I love how your son is just chasing that kid and beating his ass at the end. ;-) Reminds me of my daughter at 4 who was playing EverQuest and getting constantly guardsmacked for doing psycho things in game and 3 years later was PvPing in World of Warcraft as an ambushing rogue. ;-) As for this unit: a 12tb drive with damn near every game in existence, most of which are pre-set up for me? The absolute months of time it would take me to build something like this is worth the $300 alone!
I'm so excited for this one, but as soon as i check the amazon reviews, there are people there claiming is trash, DOA, that you need a hacker level(wtf) and they stand that nothing is already set, and is not plug and play, so i got my doubts.
That’s nice but teknoparrot usually charges for releasing files to play there games through their emulator , great collection and drive , so do all those games like Rambo, afterburner , Sega rally 3 work on this drive
I just looked this product up to buy it, and every single person in the reviews said do not buy it, that it takes all kinds of fiddling with to get it to even work
you believe everything you read on the internet? I am literally showing you the build in this video, you think its fake footage? Versus someone who writes a two sentence review?
The most difficult part of doing all this yourself is getting pinball and setting all the machines up imo. They scrubbed the net of "roms" for pinball machine emulation to sell to people online.
The second link suggests a 2TB hard drive from the same manufacturer called " Kinhank 2TB External Hard Drive with Over 120,000 Retro Games, Batocera 33 Game System, Hard Drive for Laptop/PC/Windows/Mac OS, Compatible with PS3/PS2/PS1/PSP/DC/MAME/ARTARI/SEGA SETURN, USB 3.0 ". Is it any good?

@@drewtalks this is not necessarily a compliment. They are amongst the highest paid because they screw people and rely on ignorance and lack of consumer consciousness
Hooking a tinkered with drive to your PC is probably one of the most outrageously stupid things you could do. Hopefully it's not connected to the internet and you do nothing but game on it. Not saying this thing is loaded with spyware or other malicious crap, but I bet it is.
Now if you wanted toget this and then curate down to a smaller collection on a smaller HDD would it be a pain to do? Are the games just in a usual windows file format that makes for easy drag and drop or is there some kind of protection to prevent you from doing so?
Are all the old spyro games on here? In the ps1 or 2 category? I'm trying to get one for my gf and I. I recently got her into spyro from the reignited trilogy. We platinumed it now I need her to experience the real thing!
The reviews on this on Amazon are brutal lol Would you mind telling me what laptop minimum specs would need to be to run this? I've got a 4k laptop but its not what you'd call a gaming laptop
Anything you need to run PS3 and Switch would need a bit of graphical horsepower. You're only just now starting to see APUs handling that emulation probably without a GPU, but that's for newer stuff like the AMD 6800U or better from like last year or so. Most modern laptops should be able to handle up to PS2 era without much fuss. My phone even handles Wii and PS2 games pretty well and it's 3 years old now, Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
What a wild time to be alive. I would have been in heaven with this as a kid. Like you said though, I'd probably just build something like this today on my own PC for way less clutter
@@joshuadenson996 Sure, it's just a matter of putting ROM's and emulators into a front end software like Launch Box and then putting all of that onto an external drive of sorts. There are tons of how to videos out there for this kind of stuff
@@joshuadenson996 hyper spin is easy to install, but finding most of the roms for certain emulation is harder if you don’t know where you’re looking. And the time it requires to download all the games
The amount of work this takes to organise and configure to work is monumental having it all like this is really amazing, You won’t be able to play most of these in your lifetime
It's not really all that hard to do yourself. With programs like retroarch, retrobat, and emulationstation (which is what most of these devices use) it's all pre-configured. It's just a matter of dropping the game files in the proper folders. Full libraries of games can easily be found online to the point you can download them all in a single batch, or grouped alphabetically. Depending on your download speeds and how many different platforms you decide to set up, you can have something exactly the same as this set up within an hour.
@@Kirkyeeheewithin the hour lmao Asking honestly, do you think there's actually any torrents available with a collection this big that actually runs at a reasonable speed with enough seeders? Because with the state of torrents these days I really doubt it

Your son is very lucky to have 100,000 games to play covering all the arcades and consoles from the 1970's up to the Switch. Good luck getting him to do his homework. Thanks for this extensive review. Convinced me to pull the trigger on it.
Sadly this is not the reality.. I've setup rom machines for thousands of titles in the past and my son always just shrugged at it. Games look too good these days. The old games have no appeal to the youngins
@@sotoninIsn't that the truth! It's just how things change tbh. I fear for them and reliving their childhood games though with all of their media being digital downloads.
@@sotoninI get this from my kid too. But keep at it, sit and play with him. I did this with my kids and he even asks for certain games like NBA Jam and Twisted Metal from time to time. The real challenge is getting him away from these garbage streamers playing absolute trash on RUclips that he spends hours watching. Not even good games, what would've been the equivalent of Flash games a few years ago. I guess they watch for the personalities. I also have a massive Plex library too. Getting him to watch stuff on there is like pulling teeth, but he'll gladly watch things with me, like old horror movies. We love those.
@@sotonin I'm 18 and I'm obsessed with retro games, particularly early 3d games from the early-late 90s (doom, banjo kazooie, super mario 64, ocarina of time, tomb raider, lsd dream emulator, final fantasy 7, quake etc.) My parents can't understand why I like it so much despite them growing up with it, lol
It's definitely pretty cool to see this kind of stuff today just showcasing how far we've come with video games at this point. But for someone like me, I find this overwhelming as hell. Sometimes too much IS too much, even for me lol
@@Mike-sp7zv Definitely great for that. I know if I go back in time and show this to my kid self, he would flip out. Just show him the games up to that point in time and hide the rest lol
Emulation drives sold online are one of those things where the longer you procrastinate buying one, the BETTER a version when you finally do. Was going to buy a $35 thumb drive one off Amazon, but this one looks WAY more sexier in interface, immediate play and selection. I suggest to anyone who gets this, instantly make a copy of it all on a 2nd drive too.
if you're going to pay for pirated games then i feel sorry for you because they're free the drive you will buy will have bug issues and alot of games won't play as normal as you would expect
@xtensionxward3659 it's almost impossible or expensive as hell to even get most of these games and consoles, this isn't about pirating apart from maybe the new console generation. But even then who cares anymore, the industry will never change. I sure af don't want to pay £60 to play an old pokemon or hundred trying to get an old console in good working condition
@@xtensionxward3659The internet is free too, but we still pay for it. Energy is infinite, but we still get charged for it. We have an abundance of water, but still pay for it.
I use those same drives for my server (the 18tb versions.) So far so good, haven't had any problems. I have a similar 8tb Hyperspin setup I got back in 2018. Still works great on an external seagate drive but this one is nice. However, the 96tb Chris Cool Mods setup is the ultimate. 👍
What kind of cybersecurity analysis have you done on these executables, teamviewer software etc? I’d be checking my DNS packets especially if you ditched the firewall. Stay safe! Love all the games though!
That was my first thought as well. Turning off firewall, Antivirus and installing executables that come distributed on a Chinese product is nothing but reckless. If anyone buys this thing, either use it as a ROM dump you only copy from or run it on a segregated machine that is not in any way connected to your main network . Advising people to turn off any and all security features in a video is extremely dangerous on the creators part.
@@idontlikespmDidn't watch the whole video, did he actually do that? Yeah, that alone is reason to never listen to anything this guy says ever again. I personally would never connect something like this to my PC as I'm sure it's full of dodgy shit. and nobody I know with a modicum of computer knowledge would either. If you really think you're going to get 10,000 copyrighted pieces of software for a relative pittance, that somebody who would brazenly sell a drive full of copyrighted software wouldn't also harvest your personal information without blinking, I've got a bridge to sell you.
I ordered one, out of all you have reviewed this one seems like the most worth it, You get a great list of games with little missing and it's not $5k like the 96tb Chris Cool mod. I have my own hard drive with roms and isos Ive collected over the years from my own collections and downloads but honestly I don't have the time to really set up a dedicated drive like this. I haven't received it yet but I'll update this and give my thoughts. Update: So It finally arrived a few days ago and I've been testing around and playing with it in between working. I gotta say it's a pretty kick ass drive, it's a little loud, and I've had some controller and graphical glitches with some games the way they are configured, but most of the games work fine. Its filled to the brim with games with only 60gb of free space for adding any missing games. Speaking of, compared to my personal collection which some of which are romsets, I only counted a few missing games, PS3 being the main one, not a lot of PS3 games on this drive. There are also not a lot of PC games and Switch games which honestly makes perfect sense being not as big. Im not to familiar with Hyperspin and Rocketlauncher but I do think these are older versions of them, Honestly the frontend not working is the least if my issues as long as the games are there I can always replace the frontend with a better one, that being said the frontend doesn't suck to use and it's nice having videos pre set up for every game. Overall I'd definitely recommend this drive, It's a full hard drive so it is pretty large but this pared with a decent mini pc and you got a nice console replacement.
@@eb3005 Yeah I noticed that before I ordered, I figured the only people who bothered to leave a review are probably the people that didn't understand that the drive has to be a D drive.
The problem with stuff like this is you never actually beat any games. All you will end up doing is playing a game for 5 min and say it seems to work good or not. Let's see if Zelda works. Play Zelda 30 min and say I beat this. This isn't the console I'd like to beat this on again. Let's check out psp games.. let's check out GameCube games. Oh cool resident evil. Looks great still. Before you know it you got all the games in the world and you aren't in the mood to play any of them. You be more interested in a new ps5 game.
So what's to stop me from buying this, getting this same hard drive online (I see refurbs available for $120), and pirating the pirates by selling it for like $150?
Back in 1985 you would have to use a Commodore 64 or an Apple II to try to handle the emulators. Unless you said you were from the future and brought back your all-powerful Intel Celeron.
This drive + midrange $500 PC (or build your own using 2nd hand high end component from last generation like Ryzen 2700X / i7 10700K with GTX 1660) means you basically have "All games" from Atari 2600 era towards PS3 era. (PS4 emulator isn't good many bugs and choppy framerate, unless you play it in top of the line PC) that drive, it worth the price just for "ROMS" alone, even empty 12 TB cost about 300 bucks.
My biggest fear about buying one of these hds is that they come with malware that will install a back door where they have access to the contents and info of your computer, idk maybe I’m just paranoid but you never know with china lol look what happened with hwawei phones
@@drewtalksYou'd need to go further than that & disable the network adapters & make sure it's not on the same workgroup, otherwise it could still affect other things on the local network.
I have a massive collection of games myself...but I'm actually considering picking up this drive. Why? Because after the HUNDREDS of hours I've spent putting my own collection together, this is one of the first drives I've seen that doesn't appear to have missing or broken wheel art, let alone all of the themes included. Hyperspin is a bear to work with, but this drive looks pretty sweet. Besides that, I'm tired of trying to be a completist. Trying to complete sets of games that I'll never play even 10% of.
Except you'd be paying almost $300 for a drive when, as you admit you probably are never even going to address 10% of these 10,000 games, and I'm sure there's at on of bloat in there like regional copies and every year version of Madden etc. - I just don't understand people who compulsively need to collect either digitally or physically a great quantity of games they'll never play. That and this drive includes contemporary titles that are still being sold.
Clickbait video. I have seen a 96TB build and that one does not have every game ever. It is impossible to collect every game ever. There is a homebrew community for pretty much every console creating new games. Also there are multiple regions that have special games released etc.
thanks for the information .. I think I am investing in this Drive for my retro game collection thing!! This 12 tb drive gives me all the games I need and complete's my collection. I definitely have to get this one!!
You did very little to show games actually being played or show the quality of gameplay for those hard to emulate games… lots of very fast scrolling, and scrolling and more scrolling… but thanks for the info you did share!
Looks cool to someone like me who played lots of games on console, but i never got into computers, at all. I know nothing about them and installing Roms and shit confuses me and i would probably end up with a virus. Seems a little overwhelming to me, hence why i stick with consoles, but this looks so cool.
I would haved loved to get this in the UK, so I set up my own with emulationstation-de using mega bezel; shmups looks so good in tate mode, feels like I'm in the arcade.
I had hyper spin arcade drive but when it’s time to update that’s when problems developed with other games on wheel so I decided to do my own through launchbox

Lots of reviews claiming it was DOA and the seller’s communication was terrible
Been looking for something with all Saturn and dreamcast games
I bought an 18TB drive for a seller on Etsy but it had no switch, PS4 or Xbox 360. It did have the entire Dreamcast, ps1, 2, Xbox, Psp, Wii, and the lower end collections. I have yet to go through everything on it but it has a lot. I might still get this for the 360 games and the forbidden fruit (switch). I’d advise if you decide to get it to backup the drive. It’s not a huge investment but I’d rather put it on a brand new drive. I’d also play around like Drew said and make your own collection. You have the games so you could put something together. There are a lot of cool front ends out there.
ultimate apocalypse gaming device
lol, plug n play. Hyperspin is not plug n play. You will most likely have to configure a lot of emulators and install virtual disk software. I purchased one of these types of hypespin drives back in the day. I spent a week auditing roms and fixing directory structures to get it to work. By the end of the week i could have just built my own. That's good because you will need to know how hyperspin needs to work if you ever want to update anything or make changes. Some games are more compatible with certain versions of emulators etc. You will at least need to learn what emulator HS is using so you can look up what buttons need to be pressed to get into the configuration menu.
IDK Man...did anyone read those Amazon reviews? Buyer beware.
Anyone can leave a bad review lol
@drewtalks You're a shill, and should be disgusted. How much are they paying you?
Lol buy the product and prove me wrong, Amazon has free returns
There’s no reviews that were bad on the product, lol I just looked are you upset you can’t afford this?
Only 300 dollars for a hard drive filled with free roms? 80% of which you'll never touch and are just there to make menu navigation a chore?
Would be cool if it didn't have so many viruses. If you do purchase, make sure whatever device you use it on will never connect to the internet.
Just because it has a preview video running doesn’t mean the game actually runs properly. I bet half of these once opened up to play the game comes up with errors.
They’re all copies of free builds on arcade punks that people who have no idea how to set them up just sell them as “plug and play” which they’re not.
The best thing we had as kids was almost no choice.
I have two kids and when you give them 20 things to do, it's "BSOD" in their head and they just run away.
When i give them 2 choices, they want to do both, eventually choose one and we agree to do the other next time
That's a great point. Growing up we had a Nintendo with like 3 games and a Sega with maybe 4 and you got every cent out of those games because it's all you had
I love how your son is just chasing that kid and beating his ass at the end. ;-) Reminds me of my daughter at 4 who was playing EverQuest and getting constantly guardsmacked for doing psycho things in game and 3 years later was PvPing in World of Warcraft as an ambushing rogue. ;-) As for this unit: a 12tb drive with damn near every game in existence, most of which are pre-set up for me? The absolute months of time it would take me to build something like this is worth the $300 alone!
Has Every Game Ever? Even you said in your video it doesn't

I'm so excited for this one, but as soon as i check the amazon reviews, there are people there claiming is trash, DOA, that you need a hacker level(wtf) and they stand that nothing is already set, and is not plug and play, so i got my doubts.
Emulation is the way to go
That’s nice but teknoparrot usually charges for releasing files to play there games through their emulator , great collection and drive , so do all those games like Rambo, afterburner , Sega rally 3 work on this drive
I just looked this product up to buy it, and every single person in the reviews said do not buy it, that it takes all kinds of fiddling with to get it to even work

The most difficult part of doing all this yourself is getting pinball and setting all the machines up imo. They scrubbed the net of "roms" for pinball machine emulation to sell to people online.
No, they didn't. Nobody scrubbed the internet of pinball roms. Pinball roms are just as easy to get as any other rom.

Now if you wanted toget this and then curate down to a smaller collection on a smaller HDD would it be a pain to do? Are the games just in a usual windows file format that makes for easy drag and drop or is there some kind of protection to prevent you from doing so?

Would you mind telling me what laptop minimum specs would need to be to run this? I've got a 4k laptop but its not what you'd call a gaming laptop
Anything you need to run PS3 and Switch would need a bit of graphical horsepower. You're only just now starting to see APUs handling that emulation probably without a GPU, but that's for newer stuff like the AMD 6800U or better from like last year or so.
Most modern laptops should be able to handle up to PS2 era without much fuss. My phone even handles Wii and PS2 games pretty well and it's 3 years old now, Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.

It's not really all that hard to do yourself. With programs like retroarch, retrobat, and emulationstation (which is what most of these devices use) it's all pre-configured. It's just a matter of dropping the game files in the proper folders.
Full libraries of games can easily be found online to the point you can download them all in a single batch, or grouped alphabetically.

@@sotoninI get this from my kid too. But keep at it, sit and play with him. I did this with my kids and he even asks for certain games like NBA Jam and Twisted Metal from time to time.
The real challenge is getting him away from these garbage streamers playing absolute trash on RUclips that he spends hours watching. Not even good games, what would've been the equivalent of Flash games a few years ago. I guess they watch for the personalities.

It's definitely pretty cool to see this kind of stuff today just showcasing how far we've come with video games at this point.

Emulation drives sold online are one of those things where the longer you procrastinate buying one, the BETTER a version when you finally do.

That was my first thought as well. Turning off firewall, Antivirus and installing executables that come distributed on a Chinese product is nothing but reckless.

@@yellowblanka6058 exactly
Try writing a script or even a general overview of what you’re going to say before making a video. This was tedious to watch.
I ordered one, out of all you have reviewed this one seems like the most worth it, You get a great list of games with little missing and it's not $5k like the 96tb Chris Cool mod. I have my own hard drive with roms and isos Ive collected over the years from my own collections and downloads but honestly I don't have the time to really set up a dedicated drive like this. I haven't received it yet but I'll update this and give my thoughts.
Update: So It finally arrived a few days ago and I've been testing around and playing with it in between working. I gotta say it's a pretty kick ass drive, it's a little loud, and I've had some controller and graphical glitches with some games the way they are configured, but most of the games work fine. Its filled to the brim with games with only 60gb of free space for adding any missing games. Speaking of, compared to my personal collection which some of which are romsets, I only counted a few missing games, PS3 being the main one, not a lot of PS3 games on this drive. There are also not a lot of PC games and Switch games which honestly makes perfect sense being not as big. Im not to familiar with Hyperspin and Rocketlauncher but I do think these are older versions of them, Honestly the frontend not working is the least if my issues as long as the games are there I can always replace the frontend with a better one, that being said the frontend doesn't suck to use and it's nice having videos pre set up for every game. Overall I'd definitely recommend this drive, It's a full hard drive so it is pretty large but this pared with a decent mini pc and you got a nice console replacement.

Great hyperspin menu demo, but do the games actually load?
The problem with stuff like this is you never actually beat any games. All you will end up doing is playing a game for 5 min and say it seems to work good or not. Let's see if Zelda works. Play Zelda 30 min and say I beat this. This isn't the console I'd like to beat this on again. Let's check out psp games.. let's check out GameCube games. Oh cool resident evil. Looks great still.
Before you know it you got all the games in the world and you aren't in the mood to play any of them. You be more interested in a new ps5 game.
aint that the truth
So what's to stop me from buying this, getting this same hard drive online (I see refurbs available for $120), and pirating the pirates by selling it for like $150?

Could you imagine taking this HDD back in time to 1985? You'd be a GOD!
Loli don't think the old 386 could handle any of the emulators haha 🤣
Better take the whole rig or you’d just be a fool with an useless HDD 😂
Back in 1985 you would have to use a Commodore 64 or an Apple II to try to handle the emulators. Unless you said you were from the future and brought back your all-powerful Intel Celeron.
@@peterstaklis3712 But why would you take intel celeron?!
Because even a celeron should be able to run most of the games and would be considered mighty in 1985. Plus it’s cheap.
This drive + midrange $500 PC (or build your own using 2nd hand high end component from last generation like Ryzen 2700X / i7 10700K with GTX 1660) means you basically have "All games" from Atari 2600 era towards PS3 era.
