Also I don't think it's a storage space issue. FFXI is nearly 10 years old, it's from the era where PCs had 64MiB of RAM and 1GiB hard drives. We have 8GiB of RAM now and multi-TiB hard drives. Technology has improved a ton.
It's not about the system itself, it's about the whole game, this game stores more data than any other, specially the housing system, we have a very large range of options, customization and contents related to housing.

When it comes to housing, it doesn't matter where you place the house as long as you keep the same number of option it will take the same memory, the reason it worked in XI is the same reason most people never cared about it back then, it was very limited and served only as storage, and the game in general saved a lot less data than this one.

There's only one solution, adding more physical memory (HDDs).
