description: "Xbox hard disk image, 8 GB with the retail partition layout"
note: >-
Attached as the IDE drive at index 0 with locked=on when the path is set
and the file opens. An unreadable file only queues an error and an empty
path attaches no drive. Snapshots are stored inside the image. The
project publishes a formatted image carrying its own unsigned dashboard
and empty TDATA and UDATA folders.
The xemu release does not carry the image. Batocera and Recalbox
package the 1.0 xemu-hdd-image and copy it into the saves folder at
launch when none is there, RetroDECK copies its packaged copy into the
BIOS folder during setup, and EmuDeck downloads it while setting xemu
up. ROCKNIX packages the same image and unzips it at launch into
bios/xemu/hdd/, the path its xemu.toml gives hdd_path.

path attaches no drive. Snapshots are stored inside the image.
hdd_path has no default, so the name is a label: it is the file of
the formatted image the project publishes apart from the xemu release
(xemu-hdd-image 1.0, xbox_hdd.qcow2.zip), which carries its own
unsigned dashboard and empty TDATA and UDATA folders. Batocera,
Recalbox, RetroDECK, EmuDeck and ROCKNIX install that image themselves
and point hdd_path at it.
