That's in reference to all drives.

And is applicable to all drives, including optical. - I could have explained myself better I suppose.

Optical. Storage.

The Xbox 360's chip used GDDR3 rather than DDR3. We could technically class that as an APU once the GPU was integrated within the CPU.

There were many reasons why Microsoft chose DDR3 over GDDR5, the fact it was an "APU" wasn't one of them.

I would hope not for their sake.

There are several outlets on the internet which can be held in extremely high regard.

Anandtech and Digital Foundry falls into that category.

I wouldn't brush them aside casually.

Who's refuting them?

These devices are in the design phase for years.

There were a ton of hints and leaked information dropped about the Xbox One years prior to it's launch.

The Xbox One was most certainly not a rushed console, anyone looking at the motherboard, the over engineered cooling and power delivery understands this.
The software was immature, but the same went for the Playstation 4, Wii U, Switch, Xbox 360, Playstation 3 as well, it's normal for a new platform release, they get patched and updated over time.

If only that darn DRM and Kinect wasn't baked right into the hardware. Too bad XB wasn't willing to gamble.
