For those who have a large number of XCI files on their Micro SD Cards...
I think it would be a better setup to use NSP files instead. Here is why:
1) Simply use CDNSP_Next to easily obtain titles, updates and DLC.
2) No need to Trim any files.
3) Automatically repackages titles into an Installable NSP package.
Once files are obtained, launch FTPd from within SX OS Homebrew Menu and transfer the nsp file(s) to the root of the Micro SD Card.
Install NSP files directly with your choice of SX-OS 1.4 NSP Installer built into the CFW, DevMenu, or Tinfoil. Note: Tinfoil only supports Base Game NSP installation and does not support Update or DLC NSPs.
After the NSP installation completes, delete the NSP file(s) off of the card using NX-Shell.
1) No need to utilize SX OS Loader Menu / Cart Emulation to load games. Just click the "Installed" NSP and start playing immediately. (Note: You still need to boot into a licensed SX OS to enable signature patchingto run these installed NSPs)
2) Choice of where to install games, updates and DLC (System Memory or Micro SD Card)
3) Best part of all! No need to REBOOT and re-enter RCM at all during the entire process!
4) Expect a ban. This is for offline use only.

After testing various FTPd compilations, they all have failed and crashed in SX OS, except for this version by @m4xw discussed and posted here:

I have attached it to this post as well for convenience.
This version of FTPd hasn't crashed on me in either docked or handheld mode. It does not show your IP at the top as it says 0.0.0.0, but as long as you know your switch's IP you are set.
