    Good memories, bad delivery.

    I bought this expansion card on a sale that Best Buy had. Saved $30. Price is high for the item, IMO. However, the price is the same pretty much any place you can buy it. As there is only two choices in brand, you're pretty limited. I've had good luck with WD products, so I went with this one. It's an internal expansion for xbox series x/s, 1 TB. Easy to install...make sure the xbox is off, open the package, remove card from package, insert into the back of the xbox, turn on xbox. Simple. The xbox reads it, and BAM! More storage. The reason for four stars is the delivery. Ordered it on a Tuesday. Site showed it was to be delivered on Thursday. FedEx showed it was out for delivery on Thursday, by 10pm. Package never came. Friday, around 3pm, I get an update showing delayed, and it would be there by 10pm. Package didn't show again. Saturday, no update, and no package. Tried contacting Best Buy on chat. Got disconnected when I gave them the order number. Never heard back, didn't have time to sit and wait for the chat again. Sunday, get an update showing delayed until Monday. Finally, the item was delivered on Monday. It was raining. The delivery person left package in the rain, even though we have signs up showing to put them in the covered shelf, two feet from where the package was left. While I understand FedEx was ultimately responsible for the bad experience Best Buy does business with them, and they should hold their partners accountable. Overall, I definitely recommend getting an internal storage, and I definitely would recommend the WD ones.

    Impressive speed and ease to install

    I just started using it . Speed is pretty impressive when you resume games stored in this you won’t even notice an external drive is connected to your Xbox console. Also pretty ease to plug in. A good and reliable choice when you want to play multiple high end games like Farcry, Forza etc.. in Xbox s series console which have less internal space !
