Q: Does this expansion card work with older Xbox games?
A: Yes, it improves the performance of thousands of games from Original Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.
Q: How long is the warranty on this expansion card?

Q: How does this expansion card affect gameplay?
A: This expansion card is designed to provide seamless gameplay with no sacrifice to graphics, latency, load times, or framerates.
Q: Can I use this expansion card with other devices?
A: This expansion card is exclusively designed for Xbox Series X and S consoles.
Q: What is the storage capacity of this expansion card?
A: This Seagate expansion card adds 1TB of storage to your Xbox Series X or S.
A: your 4 tB will not give you the speeds that you need to match the internal ssd since yours is a Hdd. and this price is about right compared to other nvme of the same type
Q: So does this increase memory capacity or does it add better performance in some way?
A: An SSD will allow for faster loading and boot up of games. When a game is made with a SSD in mind the game will use less of your system RAM.. Freeing up system RAM can have large performance improvements.. Furthermore the "pop in" and "stuttering" glitches in games are FAR less common.. THIS SSD is a carbon copy of the SSD in the Series X/S So that you get the same gaming experience as if it was installed in the console and further increases how much storage you have..
Q: Is this the only SSD Compatible with the series X from seagate? Or will other models work?
A: At this time, this is the only SSD that works with the new Xbox Architecture (required for XSX games). You can still plug HDD/SSD in via USB3.0; however, they can only be used for OG Xbox/X360/XB1 games, and NOT for XSX games.

Love the Convenience
I believe the best word to describe what this Expansion Card would give you over other options is convenience. I have been able to store many games optimized for Series X on this card, and play them as if they were stored on the internal SSD of my console. With the sizes of many modern games today, I wanted to have more memory available without having to delete many of the games I currently play. I also like that I don't have to constantly delete games and files from storage or that I have to transfer games from the console to an external storage device and vice versa when wanting to download and play a new game. I only have to plug it in and it's ready for use. No updates or complicated steps needed. I also like how compact it is. If the price concerns you, you don't mind only having a few games stored on your console, limiting your internal SSD for current generation games, or transferring games to a cheaper alternative, then feel free to skip buying this expansion card, as I understand that many people won't buy this even though I think it's worth buying.

If only it wasn’t so expensive.
Excellent piece of storage and it is super small in size but lacks a punch. Plug in and it’s instantly ready to go. The only issue is the cost. It’s very expensive but the tech inside justifies the cost but I do see it dropping one day sooner rather than later. I decided to go for it because after transferring a few games from my external HDD to the internal memory, the internal was already 54% full. Soca worth while investment. Now I have 4TB between this, my external drive and the internal memory

A Must Have
Bought this to expand the storage of my Xbox Series S and it makes a world of difference. In my opinion you should skip right over the 512 GB model of this and buy the 1 or 2TB model. Games load immediately as if they were installed onto the internal console SSD and transfer speeds are impressive. I was getting 6.5 Gbps transferring games from my internal SSD to this SSD. I assume it is using a PCIe interface to reach these speeds. Definitely worth buying, especially if you have slow internet speeds or a data cap from your provider. This will rule out the need to constantly have to shuffle which games you keep on your console. All you have to do is plug it in and under settings you can tell the console to install games here by default.
