I bought a 2tb Kinhank 2T HDD from Aliexpress a batocera one and it didn't work. The drive only ended up being 5gb and no games wouldn't even boot into batocera. I got ripped off hopefully I can get a refund. I didn't know they were also sold on Amazon should have bought it there refunds much easier.
The drive I have is showing it's GPT protected partitioned. This is the second one I've tried after sending the first one back. Any thoughts on how to fix?
Hyperspin is a NIGHTMARE to install. In fact I ended up getting another HDD and creating my own retro gaming harddrive using the roms and with better emulation. Almost everything was wrong, from the button mapping to the screen scaling, it was just horrible. Not to mention the amount of times it crashed Windows and I would have to reboot, absolutely hated Hyperspin.
Hyperspin can be amazing, but its also annoying as all hell lol. One reason I did this video the way I did was to explain without making it an hour long video that even a prebuilt hyperspin setup is not so easy to get going and can require more work than you would think. I will be porting this particular build to launch box as I have defaulted to using launchbox over the years myself. Id imagine people with no experience with Hyperspin may have a lot more difficult of a time with this build than I have. I mean I spent maybe an hour doing setup then reconfiguring things... which someone not having done it before would probably spend a lot longer doing so.
@@Madlittlepixel well stated! The way you described it in the video was just right, some things work great instantly, others are fiddly, other bits just a confusing nightmare. Maybe its worth persisting getting everything perfect but damn... that takes a lot of time, at least with the build I had.
@@RockRDA the romsets and rocketlauncher can be utilized on whatever other front end you want to use. If its worth its up to you i suppose. But sure take the roms and move them to something else.
This was a really great deal for a 4tb build! I’ve been looking around in the US for these and people are easily charging $300-500 bucks for these drives. You are really paying about $50 bucks for 25k games and you could go a lifetime trying to play through them all.
@@FuZZbaLLbee It's not up to the buyer to know about the copyright. Just like when I buy a bluray I just assume they have the copyright, do you actually do any legal diligence on one? I doubt it. So not only do customs not care in the slightest about checking what's on hard drives, just the price of the hardware, in the extremely unlikely event they do find out it won't affect you outside of losing the drive. As for viruses, he clearly stated he checked it and it was clean in his case.
I purchased a 8tb hyperspin from hyperspin and iT was sold as a plug n play and was more of nightmare then it was worth but I do know now why hyperspin turns the comments off on there TH-cam videos
One of the files says lol “Disable All Anti Virus, Firewalls on PC” then another one has a TeamViewer file which can be used to take over someone’s PC. I wouldn’t touch this with a ten foot pole and if I did it would be offline on a junk throwaway PC.
Disabling your anti virus and teamviewer files are not uncommon when installing Hyperspin…even from trusted sellers who run servers for software updates.
I'm Team LaunchBox and suggest that anyonr who wants to go a PC retro build to give LB a change. It's become much easier to setup ROMs and artwork and the BigBox front end is much more streamlined as compared to HyperSpin. There still is a small learning curve in the setup process, but after that, it's smooth sailing. Another suggestion would be Batocera flashed onto an external drive, but configuring PS2 and Dreamcast emulators do require some extra steps
This. Hyperspin was hell to get setup and working, and the forums seem like they purposely try to explain things in the most complicated matter, if they actually help at all. LaunchBox is 100% times better.
Is there a community that builds and tweaks and shares pc retro builds or images similar to the retro pie community? The build downloads would be massive but ehhh.
Sure pretty much no software NEED these things. But you should be very certain you trust the software you are running before switching them off. Isolated network and a separate computer is recommended.
@@Sagnad8 Don't take that the wrong way. I was pointing out that none of those items need to be disabled to install Hyperspin or the emulators. Which begs the question of why they are asking you to do it. It's obviously not to intall Hyperspin or the emulators... I would just use this as a source for the ROMS and movie files, and download the emulators from the authors' sites.
The thing that kills me with a hyperspin build are the amount of per-rom customizations you end up needing to make because global settings either create problems, or it just isn't possible. Also, these drives have too much junk data on them like video caps with audio, bezels, and just a bunch of flashy garbage.
@@godslayer1415 would you be able to take the roms from the hard drive and put them on a different hard drive to use with retro arch or better yet delete everything but the roms off the drive and put retro arch on it instead of hyper spin
im interested in this on your hyperspin wheel... i saw a PS4 section. are them real PS4 games? or just PC games that are same titles as PS4? had no idea that PS4 could be emulated....
no.... its not worth it... you can seriously get roms for free if you just look around.... makes no sense paying a garbage company like this money just to get roms that they literally went on the internet and got for free and now turning around and trying to sell them..... please for god sakes dont buy this crap for just the roms... you are literally giving them free money for a product they stole....
Awesome! I am not a tuner and have been curious of setups like this. It's like how I really hate that I softmodded my Wii, loaded a bunch of backups, can click on them but none play. Man, I don't have time to figure out why!
looking forward for the hyperspin to bigbox conversion if you really did record the video. I already have an amazing BigBox set up, but I don't have the time to download 4TB worth of games.
I built that image I believe back in 2014. I structured the arcade folder in a unnecessarily complex, and redundant format because I hosted an internal SVN repository that I used for updates. If you want to see who initially bought that drive shoot me an email because they user's data is encrypted in several places just in case someone started reselling it I could provide them with that information instead of them contacting me.
That is really interesting. I just today learned that Hyperspin is a thing (having previously used retropi) and I'm really eager to get something similar to the one in this video. Keeping in mind the comments here stating how hard Hyperspin apparently is to set up, is there a better build you would recommend?
Emulators on all platforms need tweaking so that's not exclusive to PC, tbh the frontend would take far more tweaking than individual emulators ever would.
I would love to see what Crystal Disk info says about the condition of the hard drive they use. See if maybe the drive they send out to people are on their last legs or not.
This is cool for what it is. And really for the price, it's "almost" worth it. Honestly the thing that bothers me most about something like this is the time spent cleaning it up. There's too much on the wheel for me to process lol. Also here for the thumb-butt.
Selling just a HyperSpin HDD and assuming a customer can set it up properly seems crazy to me. The instructions can be clear but what if the PC is not powerful enough or has preexisting conditions like viruses that prevent it from working?
@@navhuss958 Yes! But its all such a leap of faith on the sellers end that the buyer can successfully complete the setup of a drive. I've been making HyperSpin setups for almost 10 years. At this point i will only provide dedicated HyperSpin PCs with an internal HDD setup. No external setup. No using HyperSpin on a daily use PC. I even advise keeping it offline.
Great deal. Can be hard to learn to make everything work but if you start from screath u need to learn it to, but you are not wasting time finding and download the 40000+ games and that is realy a great plus for me. Hope it is not like one of that cheap console emulators like i bought that had so many games for so many consoles, but like a 1/3 of them are in chinese :\
Hyperspin does have a steep learning curve, but once you get your head around it, it’s actually not that bad and visually rewarding. I would be tempted to buy this hard drive just for the roms alone!
Big Thumbs Up!! I've been looking at these. I plan on buying the 12TB model. The extra cost is worth it for the content alone. I'll most likely change it to a LaunchBox (BigBox) setup.
I went with Launchbox 4TB instead of Hyperspin. there's too much junk on the Hyperspin build compared to Launchbox, when am I ever going to play Official Xbox Magazine?
Hello friends, how are you, I bought a system like this one, I'm having problems, can you or a friend help me? My Hyperspin system is showing this message when I try to open some games in some emulators, I've tried everything and I can't because I'm I am a layman on the subject and I understand very little and watching your videos I decided to ask you for help. These are the PC games: It was not possible to find your emulator application: “D: Arcade:Emulators/PCLauncher/PCLauncher.exe I looked for this folder and files in the emulators folder and I didn't find it, if it's supposed to be in the emulators folder then it isn't already I looked in other folders to see if it was suddenly transferred by accident but I couldn't find it, worse the best games this message is appearing and they are several emulators
I use coinops next 2 because it's easier to add games. yeah sure it doesn't look as good, but that's actually better because it means to add a game all you need is the icon, roms and a jpg screenshot as a minimum. but you can add a vid if you make one or find one online and have gigs of free space available for unnecessary vids. It's a whole lot easier to update coinops next 2, whereas most of the other frontends require you to be a master with photoshop and since we are not that results in you not being able to add games. I prefer a simple frontend because remember, it's about the games, not a flashy frontend.
Most stuff on the drive wont require the highest end pc, but somethings will benefit from you having a setup with decent cpu/gpu and ram. If your pc is fairly old or has really low specs it may require you to fiddle with emulator settings to get some stuff working better.
@@Madlittlepixel Thanks for the reply. I wish I knew how to do this stuff. Retired disabled and trying to find some way of playing games with very little money to spend on it. You guys that test equipment out, do you or they ever sell or donate anything. I sound like I'm begging, I'm not just wanting to play some games. Keep the hand eye and brain coordination going. Thanks Dave FLA 👍
Seems most everyone is moving to LaunchBox myself included. I tried a new HyperSpin last year and just couldn't do it. Removed it completely and said goodbye. I spent 7 years on HyperSpin. Had a good time. Community was great back in the day.
I was watching another gaming channel and they had a video called "my problem with emulation" it was basically an entire video lamenting the fact that there is a learning curve when it comes to emulating and how they want everything to just be plug and play. They were also talking about how having to set things up was a turn off to emulation. My thought was, then just pay someone more knowledgeable to set it all up. Minor inconvenience solved.
Before even recording this video over the past week I went through the entire drive. Nothing malicious is on it, also pretty sure its just a duplicated build from some other Hyperspin builder.
I wouldnt recommend a Hyperspin HD unless you know what you are doing. It looks great but the problems soon start piling up. Look for Launchbox drive or my recommendation a Batocera drive which is truly Plug in and Play as its Linux so you boot from the drive and it really is one of the best ones out there
If it's not plug and play then why TF would I buy it??? If I have to set everything up myself I may as well just download hyperspin and the roms and set it up myself for free.
Setting up something like HyperSpin is a personal experience. Setting it all up and the whole project aspect of it is half the fun. The other half is playing the games obviously. 😊
As much as I liked hyperspin back in the day I much prefer launchbox these days, it literally took me 50+ hours to get my hyperspin setup working properly, the one thing that is annoying as hell is if using Rocket launcher as well the updates sometimes break systems and you have to troubleshoot which is a pain in the ass. Great video as always MLP 👌
I used to use BigBox but now I prefer Batocera. I like Batocera so much better. Just drop the files into the roms folder and backing up saves is just moving one save folder (the main one) and you can put the saves on handhelds as well. So much better.
@@retroman-- Batocera is great for a quick easy solution for sure and you can pretty much plug and play anywhere, I just like the limitless potential of Big Box in terms of systems etc when I'm using with my Arcade Machine.
@@krathoon2338 it's a real pain if you don't know what you are doing, very time consuming as well, end result is nice but you have to be dedicated to it.
@Mor MacFey I understand that. But what exactly are the games? I found a website that says the difference between the 8tb and 10tb is the 10tb comes with a library of PS3 games. So is that standard with all of these hard drives?

I'm from a time when we used torrents to download the games and emulators then had to "crack" the game in order to work.

I’d be afraid that a hard drive from AliExpress could be loaded with spyware.
I'm really surprised that there was no mention of the possibility of viruses, ransomware, crypto miners or whatever else we see these days.
Not to mention the copyright issues you could get when this thing is checked by customs, and has your address on it.

Is there a community that builds and tweaks and shares pc retro builds or images similar to the retro pie community? The build downloads would be massive but ehhh.
The value in this for me is more that you are getting a good base rom/artwork collection that you can then configure how you would like it
@Madlittlepixel coming through with a good review and heads up to start 2022. Thank you man! Happy New Year.
Can you just pull all the roms off this and run em on a RetroPie?
1. Plug in removable drive straight from china
2. Install included teamviewer executable
3. Disable antivirus and firewall
4. Profit
Yeah, agreed.
Being told to disable antivirus and install flagged software is a no go for me. Did you? What was your experience?
What if you had zero interest in actually installing the Hyperspin itself and just wanted to grab all the roms - is that a viable option?
Turn off UAC, Antivirus and Firewall…. Sign me up 😂

Seems most everyone is moving to LaunchBox myself included. I tried a new HyperSpin last year and just couldn't do it. Removed it completely and said goodbye. I spent 7 years on HyperSpin. Had a good time. Community was great back in the day.
I'm getting the 12 terabyte " HyperSpin " the price is mid range compared to a mini PC build. And a super console X ."
I was watching another gaming channel and they had a video called "my problem with emulation" it was basically an entire video lamenting the fact that there is a learning curve when it comes to emulating and how they want everything to just be plug and play. They were also talking about how having to set things up was a turn off to emulation. My thought was, then just pay someone more knowledgeable to set it all up. Minor inconvenience solved.
How many virus' and crypto miners did you buy ?
Before even recording this video over the past week I went through the entire drive. Nothing malicious is on it, also pretty sure its just a duplicated build from some other Hyperspin builder.
I wouldnt recommend a Hyperspin HD unless you know what you are doing. It looks great but the problems soon start piling up. Look for Launchbox drive or my recommendation a Batocera drive which is truly Plug in and Play as its Linux so you boot from the drive and it really is one of the best ones out there
How strong does your pc have to be I have a ryzen 5 5600x with 16gb of ram and a gpu rx6700xt should I get more ram to run this?
One word for you guys. : Batocera
I second this. Batocera is the new standard imo
If it's not plug and play then why TF would I buy it??? If I have to set everything up myself I may as well just download hyperspin and the roms and set it up myself for free.
I can't get mine installed. Wheel keeps spinning and games won't load. Driving me crazy.
Setting up something like HyperSpin is a personal experience. Setting it all up and the whole project aspect of it is half the fun.
The other half is playing the games obviously. 😊
do you no is there a easy way to import hyperspin builds to launchbox builds
Is this hard drive compatible with the X box One console ? Can you add and delete games as you wish ?
Can't get my remote control to work on it I bought the same thing but can't play cause the remote control doesn't work please help
“soulja boy’d up” will be in Websters dictionary 2045 addition under Synonyms for bootleg .
Just out of interest as this will effect if I buy the 4tb or 12 tb drive. which sega arcade games are missing that u mentioned in the video
Damn i got a 12TB and it doesn't work at all.
If you purchase the programs need to be installed or I do not work in a TV and work
As much as I liked hyperspin back in the day I much prefer launchbox these days, it literally took me 50+ hours to get my hyperspin setup working properly, the one thing that is annoying as hell is if using Rocket launcher as well the updates sometimes break systems and you have to troubleshoot which is a pain in the ass. Great video as always MLP 👌
I used to use BigBox but now I prefer Batocera. I like Batocera so much better. Just drop the files into the roms folder and backing up saves is just moving one save folder (the main one) and you can put the saves on handhelds as well. So much better.
@@retroman-- Batocera is great for a quick easy solution for sure and you can pretty much plug and play anywhere, I just like the limitless potential of Big Box in terms of systems etc when I'm using with my Arcade Machine.
Is it really that much of a pain? Is it just a really buggy program or something?
@@krathoon2338 it's a real pain if you don't know what you are doing, very time consuming as well, end result is nice but you have to be dedicated to it.
That seems a hell of a convoluted way of playing some retro console games.
4tb sounds huge. How much space did the build take up?
Hi, can the hyperspin work with the Xbox by any chance?
Trying to make any changes in Hyperspin is a nightmare.
Coin ops on the pc is much easier, not as much content though.
there is nothing more boring then fighting games. same same same
9.49 of repeating yourself
Where can I buy hyperspin hard drive I got coin op
Rainbow Cotton. Quality Game. 8:43
I wish I could find a list with the details explaining the differences between the 4tb, 8tb and 10tb hard drives
@Mor MacFey I understand that. But what exactly are the games? I found a website that says the difference between the 8tb and 10tb is the 10tb comes with a library of PS3 games. So is that standard with all of these hard drives?
you gonna review the 12tb one for 250$
Thank god for MISTer FPGA.
Sounds like a giant kludge clusterfuck.
I bought there thumb stick for 80 Canadian dollars and freaking nothing worked becarefull guys
Shall i buy this? do i need to tweak settings or its easy to use?
How many switch games are available?
Turn off antivirus, turn off UAC..uh...no.
Is possible to put hyperspin into series s console?
it may be a questionable device but at least the enclosure it is contained in is decent quality. i have one of the ugreen enclosures and works well.
Can i download more games ?
Do you or does anyone have a video on how to install this into an arcade box shell I'd like to put in the basement
Thanks M.L.P
Seagate is horrible junk.
Hyperspin made the chintendo vii
Yo I want this looks awesome
Dope as always brah
