If you decide to purchase a Series S, then you pretty much are required to get this to be able to have a variety of games. If you just want to be not quite an overkill but game in excess on the Series X then yes get this.

This storage expansion drive has helped me a lot with my Xbox, I can download more games faster without risking my graphics and its 1 terabyte. The only problem I have is that it’s 150$!, I know this is an ssd and all but that’s expensive. If you can’t afford this just buy an external hard drive. But if you have the money totally recommend!

BIG NEED TO KNOWS:
- 1TB = ~846GB of ACTUAL Storage
-You CANNOT remote install onto Expansion (fix this)
-You cannot remote manage expansion (fix this!)
So this was really exciting purchase for me. I wanted so many GamePass Games and Valhalla, but I had no space. This allowed me to download and play the Series X|S versions without a problem. You probably already know this but, you cant actually do that with a regular ol External HardDrive, even if it’s USB3!
I was SUPER skeptical about the write/read speeds, and I was right to be. It’s not as flash fast as the advertise and claim. Downloads are obviously dependent on your internet speed, but INSTALLS... well it’s nothing out of this world. and just as fast (maybe SLIGHTLY faster) than an External USB3 Harddrive. Whatre you paying for here? The privilege of installing next gen games. Truly. I will say the boot up/load times are much faster than any other external storage, so I suppose you’re also paying for that.
The biggest bummer with this purchase was finding out you can’t remote install/manage that storage. Nobody talks about it easier. I read at least a dozen PROFESSIONAL articles about this item before purchasing and they all had the same old data to provide, which makes me wonder if they even tested/bought the product or they all just plagiarized from one another. Because no on touched on the small details like the ACTUAL storage or the setbacks from Xbox mobile app/Console companion (listed at start of review). If I had the ability to manage the expansion remotely, this would be a five star item.
Lastly, I dont know that this is really a good VALUE (money vs perks), and I think I’ll wait before even considering another one of these (I’m actually waiting for more 3rd party expansions, which Microsoft promised).
BUT if you’d like to take advantage of these perks, that the product offers, and you’re not too sure about dropping ~240$ on it (with tax) then I would recommend checking out QuadPay. That’s how I got this. I paid 60$ every two weeks, using quad pay, and it made the hit to my wallet, A LOT more bearable.

Works great for storing and playing Xbox games, but cant store very many sinve its 500gb. There has been a noticeable difference in loading times. I had an external hard drive enclosure to turn it into an external drive.

My brother was struggling to play games that were compatible with his Xbox s because he didn’t have enough room on the Xbox and this card helped him out so much! Now he can download and play many games that he couldn’t before.

Maybe a little pricey but works as advertised. Was about 960-980 GB. Was a xmas gift for my son to expand his Series S storage. Xbox treats this exactly like the internal and you can play games off this drive unlike the externals. Only took of a star due to price for a terabyte.

essential for any series console purchase especially for the series s with most games coming at over 100gb. now that prices have come down it makes it less of a financial hit
