I dont thonk uoull find much of a better price out there, just fo for it!

Awesome put it in and it does the rest just as good and dependable as seagates

Got it on black Friday for a greatvdeal. Been great so far

If you are a gamer this is good quality for a good price.

Great quality ssd definitely a must if you have game pass!!

If you bought an xbox series you know why your here

Great SSD. Worth the money if you can get it on sale.

Love the product, it’s exactly what I was looking for

worked as planned just rather not spend so much money on these storage extension thingy’s.

Loads my next gen games very fast and without any hassle.

It’s fast. New pc handhelds should have a slot to accept this thing.

4 stars because of the cost, just too expensive for only 1 TB

Been tight on space on my X Box Series X for awhile now. In the past, on my old X Box One X, I used a WD external hard drive plugged into the USB port to run games off of, but when I tried to use it on the X Box Series X I have, I got a message saying that the old external hard drive wasn't fast enough to run the games. Enter the WD Black C50, an expansion card that plugs into a slot on the back of the Series X. It is 1 TB and is as plug and play as they come. I plugged the C50 in, restarted the Series X, and looked for the drive in the settings. I didn't have to format the drive, it already showed up as capable of being used for storage and games. I selected the option to make it the primary storage for the Series X and then downloaded a freshly purchased game. It downloaded and installed on the C50. I noticed no difference between running games off of the C50 or off of the Series X factory drive. I like the fact that there is no need to take up an extra USB input, and you get a terabyte of extra storage. Works like a charm and easy to install.

Overpriced for the amount of storage you’re getting. Just another item you have to buy specifically for your Xbox.

A must have if you have a large catalog of games. While the next gen systems are 1TB in size, depending on the games that are installed, you're going to be using this storage up extremely quickly and you will be needing additional storage. While on the older generation, you could simply add an external HDD to expand the storage but if you’re playing Xbox S and X games then you need this. Some games like COD or Forza take over 110GB. You’re going to eat up your storage fast if you have Xbox game pass. I’d say this expansion is a must have. It just makes things so much easier. When having big game on the internal hard drive, other games can end up being uninstalled, or moved to an ordinary hard drive, and so you have to move everything around to play them. Having this expansion drive, just means almost everything you'd want to have, is there as soon as you switch the Xbox on. The slot in the back of my Xbox Series X is made specifically for this hard drive. You just shove it in the slot, and you're done. It couldn't be any easier. Add a terabyte to your console instantly. What I like about this expansion card is it small from factor, the performance is as fast as the internal SSD. It's a few second slower in loading and copying. However, it's still fairly quick all while being extremely easy to install. I wish they had made the slot on the Xbox deeper so that this drive wouldn’t protrude an inch outward. The performance is also awesome. The space is immediately available without having to carry out any preliminary operations. Extremely comfortable. The performance is identical to the internal memory. Game loading times are very short. Three times faster than from a USB disk. The processing of the memory is also great. The case is made of metal and has a very high-quality feel. It is recognized immediately and games are then automatically stored on the expanded memory should the internal memory be full. The speeds of these absolutely miniature expansion cards is insane. Reaching nearly 6Gbps on my Series X and topping out at 3Gbps on my Series S, both speeds are fast enough to copy games in a matter of a few minutes. Velocity indeed. Games also do load from them. Any game will work but they are best reserved for Series X/S games. Original Xbox One games will load from a regular external hard drive but X/S will not. They need the speed offered by the internal storage or this expansion card. Cost is about the only complaint, but most NVME is expensive at the moment and this is no different. Hopefully over time, this will come down price, while also the size of storage should go up in size as 1TB is still small with the size of games and the updates that accompanies them.

In today’s age of gaming, pretty much everything is a download. In the good old days, “memory” was built into cartridges, then when games transitioned to disc format, you could buy swappable memory modules for saving your progress. Nowadays consoles need memory, a lot of memory, to hold not just progress but the full game. The ability to add or expand the consoles storage is an absolute must. I got this expansion card for an Xbox series X that had reached the limits of its internal storage and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Out of the box, this card appears like an oversized flash drive. The instructions are clear and simple and there was no doubt about how to add it to the Xbox since there is a very clearly marked expansion slot. When plugged into the Xbox it protrudes slightly, but the minimalist look of the card blends into the esthetic of the console and it is hardly noticeable. With the card plugged in I fired up the Xbox and expected to have to select the card or do some little setup things. Nope. On the Xbox the available memory capacity simply jumped up to include the total from the expansion card. No fuss, no selections, no acknowledgment, just…more memory. Since the internal drive was full I proceeded to test the ability to add games by downloading a big, full game that I had previously downloaded on the internal storage, but removed as the storage filled up. The download went relatively quickly, with nothing to indicate where the game was going (it had to be on the expansion card). Once it was downloaded I proceeded to play the game and again, there is nothing that gives the impression that it isn’t working from the core Xbox system storage. The experience is just seamless, and I couldn’t be happier with the upgrade “process” and the functionality of the expansion. After running it for a week and adding additional downloads and saves the expansion card continues to run flawlessly. The Xbox makes no distinction as to where things are saved and it just runs as if the added memory is fully integrated with the system. I will definitely be getting another expansion card as needed.

Doesn’t connect to Xbox at all. Never buy it. I hate it and it will be returned. I am switching to PlayStation

When it comes to smaller sized form with high capacity storage I'm usually skeptical about the quality. As in how good it will be, how fast and/or how long it will last. The Western Digital black 1TB Expansion Card for the Xbox series X/S so far seems to be perfect. Pretty much indistinguishable from the onboard hard drive. No lag time loading or when playing games. This expansion slot drive was easy to set up and configure. Tech novices should have no issue adding additional storage to their Xbox gaming system. Halo Infinite ran flawlessly, just as if it was on the internal hard drive. Mechwarrior 5 and Forza Horizon 5 also ran flawlessly. My only real complaint, and this has happened twice so far, is that when starting my Xbox Series X, the drive doesn't show as loaded. A simple console restart fixed it both times, but it's a concern I'll keep an eye on. Not enough of an issue to take away a star, but definitely something to notate. FO extra storage space at a reasonable price, this is hard to beat.

Item is great best buy team is no help what so ever.

Got the card, installed it, put my games on it. Seemed fine. But since i got it the xbox has started to have issues taking 15 minutes plus to shutdown or restart. Never had an issues before i got the card. Probably will return and order the seagate, seems to be some issue here.
