Seagate Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series X|S 1 TB Solid State Drive - NVMe Expansion SSD for Xbox Series X|S (STJR1000400)

Works well, and is ready to plug and play out of the box. Highly recommended as part of a storage solution for your Xbox needs. Even if you have a 1tb Xbox this will match its 802gb of usable space and top it off with an additional 117gb, for a total of 919gb of added storage. I have a 512gb Series S, which is only 364gb user available space. So you can imagine the dramatic increase given by this drive. The internal storage is currently home to eight games, five of which are AAA titles. Total space taken is 359gb, along with 1.5gb of apps. So, 361.5gb of 364 available, and that's a wrap. This Seagate drive? 24 games installed on it, 15 are AAA titles, and there is still 14.3 gb leftover. So as the raw numbers suggest and all other things being equal, yes. It tripled the storage of the internal drive and functions just like it. Fast, seamless, no fuss at all. Great product that helps organize, expand, and run games on your Xbox. A worthy purchase to be sure.

TLDR at the very bottom I was skeptical about buying one, all that money for storage, really? No thank you. Well... that worked for me for a while lol but eventually I hit that point where it was unavoidable, I had to get something. I deal with tech all the time, I'm no expert, but I'd like to think my judgement is solid, fair, and reasonable. Anyway I'll get on to it. Pros: I know being pricey isn't exactly a pro because it is no doubt expensive but in my honest opinion it's well worth it for both but especially the 1TB. I would recommend waiting for a sale or something if you're strapped. Don't fall for FOMO. They're extremely reliable, function is genuinely impressive(no exaggeration, it is just as advertised and is just as fast as the internal drive), it is compatible with both the Xbox Series X & Xbox Series S ONLY, should be obvious but just in case. I do like the design it is very sleek, sexy, and thin but still built solid. It reminds me of the memory cards for all the old consoles we had to buy back in the day. The quality impressed me as well, no it's nothing revolutionary, but they are bult very well and they have a clear protection cap to put on the end of the card for when/if you take it out of the console so it doesn't get scratched. Small thing but I like the size, I was expecting it to be massive-ish but it's kinda tiny Cons: I do wish it wasn't as much as it is, it is a lot of money but you CAN find deals, also look at the New & Used section as well. I still feel like it's worth it for the 1TB but the 2TB price is ridiculous. $250+ - $350+ cannot be justified. It's worth MAYBE $220 at most. I wish there was a hub for the Series X and S so you could have 2 Storage Expansion Cards plugged into the console all at once because I have three of the 1TB Cards. Be VERY careful pulling it OUT of the console, it can scratch the plug in part of the Card easily so take it out as straight as possible if you have to take it out. Don't be wiggling it. The scratches won't ruin it but still... be careful. Anyway TLDR; I do recommend it, very solid product and I think the 1 TB is the perfect option but if you do have the money I'd get the 2 TB but ONLY if the 2TB is on sale. Don't forget sometimes they have the payment plans and also look for some that are in the New & Used section, you can genuinely get better prices occasionally and yes they are worth it even if it is Used. Might get one with a slight scratch or tiny cosmetic damage. They always test the product before sending it to you.

Review is for the 4 TB card. Expensive little bugger. It actually holds 3.7 TB once formatted (and it does come formatted). I.m the kind of guy who likes to keep my library local rather than download-delete-redownload due to capacity limitations. So I’ve got the 1 TB internal and two 16 TB Western Digital Element externals. I had a 1 TB expansion card but decided to upgrade to the 4 TB. Games (especially the X|S jobs) are getting so darn big these days — looking at you Call Of Duty — ridiculous). Some of them 200+ GB. I found myself moving stuff around way too much. Now having 5 GB (well 4.5 GB for games after formatting) between the internal and expansion is a breath of fresh air for me. Again, a bit pricey, but if you can swing it it’s soooo nice having the extra space for those X|S games (which MUST be played from either the internal or expansion). A few games are tagged as X|S but are still Durango under the hood so they can still be played from the externals without swapping (Halo MCC and Mass Effect Legendary come to mind). It was important to me so I didn’t mind dropping the $$$. Works great, just like the old 1 TB internal had n there….just bigger.

Caught this on sale and it was definitely worth the money! I have a LOT of games on my Xbox Series X and this storage expansion card is compatible and has been more than enough! It works well and I haven't had any issues with it. Good quality and boot time is extremely quick. Size is convenient enough to make inserting and removing the card easy. There's no buzzing or humming noise. It even comes with a nice protective case. I recommend this item.

Certain games, especially those enhanced for Xbox series X/S will not run from a standard USB drive. Those games will run from from an external SSD drive so this drive is recommended for extra external storage solution. The drive is available in 3 sizes -1 TB, 2 TB and 4 TB so you have plenty of options that will fit your needs. It simply plugs into the back of the Xbox in the SSD port so you don't have to tear your console apart trying to install it internally. It formats easily, it's noiseless, since it's external so it's highly portable, simply unplug and make with you and it's officially authorized / compatible to work with Microsoft / Xbox. Highly recommended.

Got the smallest and cheapest version of it and I can fit like 90% of my games on my console now. The others are for sure overpriced but spring for the 1 or 2tb one and you won’t regret it.

3.75TB out of 4TB is usable, the "data tax" discrepancy is getting annoying. It's a proprietary SSD solution for a proprietary console, it works solidly as intended, only genuine complaint would be...Xbox 360 cards had Labels, juggling multiples of these expansion cards is getting difficult.

This thing is awesome!! I have an Xbox Series S the original one with 512gb of storage and let's face it for how big games are these days that just aint enough storage. Got this 2tb expansion card from Seagate and the quality of the drive, the storage capacity, transfer speeds and connectivity is simple also no noise as its just an expansion card!! Really great bang for your buck if your in need of extra storage for those Series X/S optimized games this is the card for you!!
