WD Black C50 1TB Storage Expansion Card (SSD) for Xbox for $124.99
The WD Black C50 expansion card is essentially a 1TB NVME SSD that's wrapped in a proprietary Xbox-compatible shell. Unlike the more complicated PS5 SSD installation, where you have to open up the PS5 in order to access the SSD slot, the Seagate expansion card simply plugs right into its own dedicated port on the back of the Xbox. It delivers the same speed as the internal SSD and thus you won't sacrifice performance or experience longer load times that you would have experienced with a regular USB drive. A 1TB expansion card will double the storage on your Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S Carbon Black Edition console and triple the storage on your OG (white) Xbox Series S console. Unlike the PS5, there's no other way to add high-speed storage to your Xbox console. You'll have to go with either the WD or Seagate expansion cards, which makes it even more important to jump on a good deal when one pops up.
