I saw recently that CoolToys and RGT85 review some KinHanks on KZread and decided to give these virus-carrying Chinese "no-care-about-IP" retro gaming consoles from Amazon. I got the device to work on my Lenovo desktop (i7+32GB_ram) and Lenovo laptop (i5+16GB_ram). However, I couldn't get my 2019 i9 32GB RAM 16" MacBook PRO or the 2021 m1 16GB RAM 13: MacBook PRO to fire up the KinHank. I used the restart for the Intel MacBook and tried holding Options, or CMD+R and CMD+P+R. For the m1 MacBook, I used the hold the power button to go into Options. Does anyone out there know how to boot the KinHank Retro Gaming 2TB External Hard drive from Amazon? This is helpful.

I was just wondering what games you tested on it in the video. Curious about the xmen game at the beginning. I have a mini pc bat overs set up. Not gone through the massive amount of games on it yet so it may have them on there
Thanks for the review; a question for you if you know the answer. How do you quicksave on this thing? Is there a key command that will do it like esc lets you exit? Depending on how I map the controller one of the random buttons prompts the quicksave but it is tied to an action button and will thus save over and over while I am playing. Most of the time though there is no button that will quicksave if I have the controller mapped as advised. Setting the Hotkey also does not seem to be reliable.

You actually don't need to spend a ton of money to get one of these hard drives up and running and pretty much playing anything on this drive. I wanted to try one of these hard drives and didn't want to tie up my main system so I bought a used HP Elitedesk 800 G3 with 16 GB of memory pretty cheap on Ebay, added a SWFT105 Radeon graphics card (new) for about 140 bucks. All I did was take some alcohol, clean the CPU, put some new thermal paste, add the low profile GPU. It doesn't look like a sexy gaming PC or anything but it runs like a dream.

You could technically add them to Steam via the file structure but there isn’t really any reason to. You’d be creating way May work for yourself as you would be essentially bypassing the Batocera user interface and forcing yourself into manually reorganizing all of the game files etc. Steam is more of a game store first, with a lite user interface option built in. Launch box, is more of what you’d want to look into if you were just wanting to use the files off this device to set up your own customized game build.

My only complaint about Batocera Linux is that it does not contain the Microsoft secure boot key which means that sucure boot must be disabled for it to boot up. There are other Linux distros that do have secure boot in their boot loaders. It's not really an issue except on some systems, secure boot must be turned on again in order to get back into Windows. Shame on Microsoft for trying to break Linux for all PCs
This is self contained Batocera isn't it? So you boot it up on it's own?
