Don't have any real advice on this, because haven't fully contemplated doing it yet... only found one lead on a cabinet and it fell through, DOH...
But was just thinking.....those pins take forever to load if you watch videos and have ever used VP9/Pinmame...kind of wondering if using a solid state drive wouldn't make that a lot smoother. They're finally getting down to reasonable prices, and even the slowest SSDs are way faster than a mechanical disk, read-wise.
