Seagate’s Xbox licensed 1TB expansion card is back at a pre-Christmas Black Friday price
If you’re a new Xbox XS owner thanks to Black Friday and Cyber Week deals, or if you’re gifting one to someone for the holidays, you’ll want to use this nifty shortcut to seamlessly double your console’s storage without sacrificing gameplay — the Seagate Storage 1TB Expansion Card Officially Licensed by Xbox and on sale at Amazon now 19% off.
The Seagate Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series XS is Amazon’s #1 bestseller in external solid-state drives, and considering how it’s specifically designed for the Xbox, with its own dedicated slot on the back of the console, it’s easy to see why.
Made for each other
Other external devices can be paired to the Xbox for additional storage, but only the Seagate Storage Expansion Card has the officially licensed Xbox Velocity Architecture, so nothing is lost in translation and the game doesn’t lag at all. Seagate’s expansion storage card gives you fast load times and frame rates, as well as uninterrupted gaming that other devices can’t achieve.
Seagate’s expansion storage card can also store and play thousands of games, going back to four generations of Xbox gameswith all the speed and performance you’d get if stored directly on the console’s internal SSD. If there’s a new game you want to add and it’s too big for your current onboard storage, it’s easy to just transfer some games from the SSD to the Seagate so you can add that big file.
Storage worries: gone
With new games becoming much more detailed and immersive — and subsequently more massive in file size — the 1TB of built-in storage on the new Xbox Series XS will quickly become scarce. The 1TB version of Seagate’s expansion card doubles that the second you plug it into the dedicated slot on the back of the Xbox—no formatting, no added firmware, just plug and play.
Seagate’s expansion storage card comes in sizes up to a massive 8TB version, but we like the price of the still-sufficient 1TB model for $130 after Amazon’s 19% discount. A 3-year hassle-free warranty is included in the price, but the device’s reliability is one of the features highlighted by over 20,000 Amazon reviewers, who have given this expansion card a stellar average rating of 4.8 stars. Whether you already have an Xbox or plan to make it your big purchase for the holiday season, the Seagate Storage Expansion Card is the logical must-have accessory to add to it.
