There will certainly be some big Black Friday deals in a few weeks for peripherals and components such as controllers, headsets, SSDs, you name it. But if you look in the right places, you’ll find that there are already some great deals to be found and jumped on. If you yourself are an Xbox Series X or Series S player or love someone who is, treat yourself or them to this Seagate Storage Expansion Card for Xbox. You can expand the onboard storage to download and play more games for just $200. Normally this solid state drive goes for $360, but right now it’s 44% off over at Amazon.
The Xbox Series X and Series S are the current generation of Microsoft gaming consoles. the more robust Series X features an internal SSD with a total storage of 1TB while the Series S supports a storage of just 512GB out of the box. After consider the system software loaded on them that gets consoles to run in the first place, the actually usable storage is considerably less than that. And games these days are ballooning in file size like crazy. Most recently, the latest Call of Duty Black Ops 6 released a few weeks ago and that game alone has a download size of over 300GB. If you want to make the best of your Xbox console, you’re going to want some form of additional storage.
Why Go Seagate?
You can set up your Xbox Series X with a handful of different expansion storage options, but unless they meet the necessary spec, you won’t be able to take advantage of many of the promises of this console generation. The Series X compared to its predecessor has significantly faster load times and can also do what Microsoft is calling Quick Resume. With it, you can hop between multiple games without closing what you were just playing, allowing you to quickly resume from where you left off — but if you use an older or less equipped external hard drive, these features won’t be supported.
However, the Seagate Storage Expansion Card designed specifically for the Xbox Series X does support these quality of life enhancements. It just plugs in externally and starts working for you right away. Now you can enjoy 2TB more of games you love downloaded locally and swap between them all at a moments notice. Plus you no longer need to worry about a single AAA game eating up all the space on your internal storage.
