Will this work for xbox series x external storage/gameplay?
No. If you put it in a NVME to USB enclosure, you can play old generation games on it. The ONLY expandable storage you can use to play X|S or optimized for X|S games is the Seagate expansion cards.

Will this work on the PS5?
I watched some testing vides about drives on youtube and my understanding is that PS5 firmware will accept any Gen4 controller drive. It'll accept it and let you install on it. Of course, you would probably want to get a heat sink for this and performance might not be the fastest but I believe it will work.

It will let you run any PCIe 4.0 drive but you really should use one that passes performance recommendations since the SSD industry right now is at a point where premium drives that meet it are not that much more expensive. A cheap slow drive that Sony doesn't block like the Nv2 or Solidigm P41 could stop working in PS5s any day and Sony could rightfully say it's the user's fault for not listening to the published requirements.

Let the SSD wars begin! I used to just put my favorite games on my SSD and my other games on a spinny WD black, but at these prices, all my games are going on the SSD. I just bought a 1TB yesterday for $54. I should have waited for this.

I just bought a Samsung 980 and was a bit sad when I saw this. Then I looked at the TBW and realized I went with the better drive.

TOP Amazon review: "...Bing
4.0 out of 5 stars Updated review after 2 days use
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2022
Capacity: 2TBVerified Purchase
***Updated Review***
TLDR: please avoid the 2TB version if possible.

After I transferred my entire Steam/EPIC library to the new drive, the speed dropped drastically and we are now talking about SATA level of performance. This is less than half of what Kingston promised to deliver and I have decided to return it. The 2TB version uses a DIFFERENT controller than the 1TB version reviewed by TPU, the different firmware version confirms it."

UNQUOTE

Just posting for info. I myself bought a cheapo a few weeks ago that I know sucks, but I'm just using it for data storage. Try and define what the requirements are for the drive and go from there.

Quote from Supraazn View quoted comment :
According to Sony the expansion drive needs to be gen4 AND at least 5,500 mb/s read speed. This drive is a gen 4 but the speeds are much lower than the requirement. So it may or may not work, but even if it does itll be too slow to play ps5 games directly off of.
You'd be able to play PS5 games off this just fine. Load times might go from 2 to 3 seconds, or 4 to 6. But it will work just fine.

(Not that I necessarily suggest getting this drive for the PS5, but it will work)

Good for that 2nd, 3rd or 4th NVME slot if you got it.
