Clone your old OG Hard Drive! You can find NEW OLD STOCK Maxtor OneTouch or OneTouch II External hard drives for less than $30. Used ones for less. You can also find NEW OLD STOCK IDE, EIDE, or PATA hard drives for about the same price.
Obviously, you can use SATA drives with adapters. Or you can choose SSDs, but youll still need adapters. Its up to you.
I only need space for MAME and less than 25 games, and you dont need adapters or new hardware if you use IDE drives.

My beloved original Sega Saturn I bought from KMart circa 1995. I remember putting it on layaway for a week. LOL. I modified this later in 1996 (sorry, mistakenly said 1997 in the video) after seeing how much great games were being left in Japan, and also seeing how long it took for the games to be ported over.
The overview series Im starting will feature gaming stuff I bought new, and show all the inserts and stuff that originally came with item. The only stuff Im missing from this is the baggies for the cords and controllers.
