Seagate just dropped a beast—4TB of storage for the Xbox Series X|S. And yeah, it’s gonna cost you a cool $499.99. Yikes, right?
They’ve been offering 1TB and 2TB cards for a while, but let’s face it—modern games eat up space like nobody’s business. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, anyone? That monster’s like 400GB! Deleting and redownloading games? Exhausting.
So, Seagate’s Expansion Card basically gives you room for all the games. Almost. Ever find the game you want to play is the one you just deleted? Maybe it’s just me. Plus, no more halting those annoying-but-necessary game updates because you’ve run out of space. A familiar struggle, right?
Now, these bad boys fit right in with the Xbox Series X|S drives, running smooth as butter. Here’s the kicker—unlike your regular external hard drives, you can play straight from these puppies without moving the game over to the Xbox’s internal SSD first. Handy, but your wallet might cry a little.
We’ve got Microsoft’s fancy Xbox Velocity Architecture to thank for the faster loading textures and that enhanced backward compatibility magic. So, if you’re replaying old favorites, they might just work better this time around. It’s like a gaming time machine or something.
The new card has the same look and guts as the 1TB and 2TB versions—same dimensions, same 128MB cache, which probably means nothing to some, but there it is.
Not gonna lie, it’s pricey. At almost $500, you could literally buy a 1TB Series X instead. But hey, Best Buy’s got $70 off right now. Amazon’s jumping on the bandwagon too—and if you’re in the UK, places like Argos and Scan got you covered.
So, quadruple your storage? Sounds tempting, even if it’s a tight squeeze for your budget. Grab your piggy bank, folks!
