Still grossly overpriced and can't be used on anything but Xbox

$89-$90 is my target for this and I would buy it.

Sony used to be the one who used proprietary storage. They learned their lesson and Microsoft clearly has not.

Yeah, it's overpriced for what it is.
Yeah, it sucks.
Yeah, I bought one because this is the lowest I've seen the 1TB and more storage is an absolute necessity for getting the most out of Game Pass Ultimate on a Xbox S.

this is why the S doesnt sell and is a terrible idea. Now you spent more than just buying the X in the first place. or almost as much.
Got my s for 150 from Verizon so this expansion card is a win

Historically, the higher prices SKU was literally unavailable for purchase for the first 2 years on the market while the lower priced options were regularly available. As recent as last Christmas we were getting in line for a chance to buy a PS5 with a disc drive.
I bought 3 while they were unavailable…

Quote from ToddlerTN :
Because you cannot play Xbox Series X/S games directly from a USB-attached drive. You'd have to move those games to internal storage before you can play them. There's no benefit to NVMe in your scenario because the USB connection is the bottleneck. The reason to grab this for $125ish over your package is that this is the only way to extend your internal storage.
You can play some X/S games like Rocket League from the external. I just learned how to tell a few days ago.
Go to Manage game and add-ons after you hit the button with the three lines on the game tile. Go to File Info in the bottom left. If AppModel says Gen: Durango it can be played from external. If it says Scarlett then only from Internal storage.

Any suggestions for an external drive?
WD P10 is a reliable mechanical drive that's pretty good, not super fast but still decent. 4tb for $115 or 2tb for $75.
If you want a faster SSD drive Western Digital makes the D30, P40, P50. Each one is faster and more expensive.

To MS,

Please reduce the price of expansion cards. I don't want to pay this much for storage and as a result I am buying less games, less DLC, etc. as my internal 1TB drive is full.

As an alternative how about letting me pick if I want to play the Xbox one version of a game off if an external hard drive instead of forcing the optimized for series s/x version for which I have no room.

On the plus side, thank you for making the controllers, wheels, etc all backwards compatible.

Still way overpriced, its funny how some really basic games for the XBOX claim they need faster storage to work, trying to get you to splurge on more storage, this is still just a blatant money grab...

Just get a USB to M.2 adapter and drop in a cheap SSD so in the future you can use it as a normal flash drive. The USB connection cannot max out a NVMe drive but usually NVMe drives are newer and have longer sustained write speeds than SATA ones. Definitely don't listen to what others are saying about using an HDD instead, the write times are way slower.

With the amount that is taken by OS and other garbage it really isn't that bad at least as a long term thing. This is at least a step in the right direction, sure its still too much but much better. The s sells fine, it is an emulation king.
