*TurboGrafx-16 units have a different shaped expansion port.  As such it is extremely easy to damage the pins trying to force a SSDS3 onto the unit.  While it can be used, TerraOnion does not consider it an officially supported hardware.  If you decide to use one (at your own risk) we recommend that you loosen the screws on the SSDS3 shell to allow the SSDS3 pin connector to slide on easier.  You can tighten them after successful insertion.
 
*PAL TurboGrafx units similarly have the same fitment issues.  Also, they were altered to run at 50hz many games do not run correctly, so it is  similarly considered unsupported by TerraOnion.
