Xbox Series X|S owners can expand their storage capacity for less right now thanks to a nice deal at Best Buy and Amazon. Seagate’s 2TB Expansion Card is on sale for $200 at both retailers. Amazon is matching Best Buy’s deal, which is one of many early Black Friday gaming and tech deals at Best Buy this week. Seagate’s 2TB model is the largest officially licensed Xbox expansion card.
Seagate 2TB Xbox Expansion Card
$200 (was $250)
Seagate’s 2TB Expansion Card was available for this price during Prime Big Deal Days last month, but that was the first time the 2TB model dropped to this low of a price.
In fact, this particular model launched alongside the Series X|S with an eye-watering $400 price tag. Last year, right around the time Western Digital’s C50 Expansion Card released, Seagate dropped the prices of its 1TB and 2TB cards. The 2TB model fell all the way down to $280 and has since received another price cut to its current $250 MSRP.
Amazon’s deal lets you get the 2TB card for half the price Xbox owners paid during its first couple of years on the market. Seagate’s 1TB Expansion Card costs $150 and isn’t on sale at the moment. The WD Black C50 1TB is $144, which is technically a deal ($6 off), but not a good one. Western Digital also makes the C50 in a 512GB model for $80.
You can run out of space on your Xbox Series X|S surprisingly fast. The 1TB Series X has 802GB of usable space, while the base model Series S clocks in at 364GB. Modern AAA games eat up space quickly, and if you subscribe to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, deleting games to make room for new ones can become the norm.
