Xbone, iirc, and initially due to corporate incompetence.
But disc-only games aren't practical anymore. 16x Bluray read speed is only 72MB/s, contrasted with a low end SSD at 3500MB/s+. The Xbonex has 12GB of ram, and to fill 10 of that would take 138 seconds assuming its drive is capable of 16x. And that's not accounting for the dynamic nature of many modern AAA titles that are constantly swapping out large portions of data.
