The Coalition used the Xbox Series S SSD as makeshift RAM to help Gears of War: E-Day run smoothly

Gears of War: E-Day studio The Coalition has revealed it used the Xbox Series S's internal SSD as makeshift RAM to get the game running smoothly on the 10 GB RAM console. Technical director Kate Rayner said a couple of gigabytes of SSD storage can add around a gigabyte of usable system memory, with only Lumens-based reflections removed to maintain 60 frames per second. Other game teams are already interested in replicating the technique.
