If you're like me, you've had trouble tracking down an Xbox Series X. I recently came across an Xbox Series S and decided to take the plunge. I'm quite happy with it, but the storage is seriously limited. That's where this product comes into play. The same technology that allows for Quick Resume and faster load times is built into this storage expansion card. It's very easy to use, but you will pay a pretty penny for it.
This thing costs almost as much as the Series S console. While I get that new tech is always expensive at first, it sucks for early adopters that need a storage solution for their console. You can still use a regular external drive on the Series S (even in conjunction with this device), but you will lose the Quick Resume feature and faster load times.
Overall I'm happy with the product. My only gripe is the cost. If you aren't impatient like I am, I would highly recommend you wait until it goes on sale or for a price drop.

Works perfectly. Simple setup. Adds much needed space...Still a little salty that I basically need to purchase this add on to my already expensive console, due to the size of games these days and the inability to play X/S games off of an external HD. Makes sense, I guess, but still a bummer.

This is like magic. I only plugged the SSD into its dedicated slot and it is all done. The storage has been expanded and my Xbox received an amount of storage that I actually need for my games. No hardware efforts were needed it is plug and play. Highly recommend it for those who need a storage expansion. It is a bit pricy but worth every penny.

It's a bit expensive, but man it's fast. I was transferring games between two series x consoles stored on this expansion and was only limited in speed by the Ethernet gigabit port speed. The USB 3.0 speed is a fraction of what this expansion card gets.
It's very plug and play. Just be sure to push it in solid. I found I had to give it just a little more to get it to engage.
It's very much for those that want more high speed storage and are willing to pay for it. The external HDD that I have doesn't even compare as far as speed goes.

Great expansion card, specially built for the new xbox series consoles. Works as expected, loads up your games fast and you can also share this card with multiple xbox series consoles. The downside is the price, way to expensive. Price should be more reasonable.

Makes storage simple, but expensive

Works effortlessly with the new Xbox series consoles as advertised. Plug it in and it is ready to go. Store and play Xbox series games, series enhanced games, or back compatible games directly from this expansion card. The down side is that it is expensive. You pay about the same for this 1TB of proprietary memory as you would for a fast 2TB external SSD, but you cannot play Xbox series or series enhanced games from an external SSD. If you have the money to spend, it makes things very simple.

Works flawlessly on my Series X. Super fast and more than doubles my storage for my Series X games.
It's expensive, but that's just the reality of this kind of tech. Other similarly specced NVME drives cost similarly on the PC side of things.

Xbox made SSD's so small and convenient is really incredible. I bought both a Xbox & a PS5, but the PS5 has to be opened to put the additional memory in, and it isn't even working at launch (they'll update it with firmware later). With Xbox, you just plug your card, your Xbox recognizes it and it just works. Easy to use and smart design. That said, the only negative is price, it is quite expensive. Hopefully more models from different hardware makers will be available soon at better prices.

Awesome external drive

Awesome drive and easy to use just plug n play and easily swappable. The price could be better but nothing beats the ease of use and super fast transfer speeds also being able to run X|S games. I would recommend if you have the games to fill it up and if you have some extra cash as for some people the price is pretty high. The drive has nice weight to it and feels to be made of quality materials I also love the small size pictures make it look bigger than it is.

Let me start by saying that this little nvm is for series X is very expensive! But let me also say that its worth the cost, i needed more memory so i could keep more games installed on my series x ( the Gears of war trilogy) this memory card is lightning fast!!! I transferred all gears series from the console to this card in under 4 mins thats close to 400gb of Data!!! Im impressed.

Xbox Series S extended storage

Bought a Xbox Series S which is strictly digital and only had 512 GB, but only 364 is available for game and data storage. After doing research on other options I found out that the load times would be affected along with some gameplay between cut scenes. This was the best option to avoid those issues/problems. Even though it’s pricey just for 1TB it is worth the purchase. It would’ve been nice if Xbox/Microsoft had a 2TB or higher option for this price.

Super easy to use, plugged it in and immediately I had an extra terabyte of storage. I don't notice any slowdown compared to the internal storage. Not much else to say, it does exactly what it is supposed to. Definitely is a little pricey.

Nice Addition to my Xbox series X

Great addition to my Xbox series X. Now I can download more of my games. FYI - the new Xbox will give your games an awesome boost when you download to the system, or the expansion card. It won't if you use another external hard drive. This expansion card provides the requirements needed to be added to the beast of a console. I play Assassin's Creed Black Flag, it looks amazing and is crazy fast. Only down fall is that it is expensive.

Plug and play, just like the internal

Works just like the internal SSD and plug and play. I think the complaints about the price are a bit overblown - NVME drives with these speeds don't come cheap, and Sony still hasn't released a list of retail drives confirmed to be fully compatible with their slot. When they do, expect them to be the most expensive of the lot. I think a small premium for a compact, well designed, guaranteed 100% compability drive is to be expected.
