However, reverse engineering has shown that the driver for XFROM has code for handling chips with a capacity of 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 MByte.

SCPH-5xxxx consoles also have the drivers to access it (rom0:XFROMMAN & rom0:XFLASH) and the OSDSYS was updated to upload these drivers to the IOP and look for updates on XFROM following the same path convention that is used for memory card updates.
