Seagate Speichererweiterungskarte (Xbox SX)

Insgesamt erfüllt die Speichererweiterungskarte für Xbox Series X|S ihren Zweck und Seagate hat nicht zu viel versprochen. Der proprietäre Speicheranschluss der Xbox-Konsolen verhindert zwar den Einsatz von potenziell günstigeren PCIe-4.0-SSDs, bietet dafür aber eine einfache Plug&Play-Lösung ohne Bedarf an Werkzeug.

There's not a lot to fault in terms of integration - build quality, performance and ease of use are all excellent - but the drive does feel pricey at £200, and given the rate at which games are growing, a 2TB model must surely be on the horizon.

While it is a bit pricey at $220, it is good to get out first. The Seagate Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series X|S is the only option for expanding capacity on the current generation Xbox consoles (for the latest games, anyway) but doesn’t skimp on performance or capacity.

It’s not a cheap addition, so I would suggest it’s something you leave out of the basket at first. See how you get on with the console and your download limitations. If you find yourself hitting that storage limit quicker than expected, this is the best upgrade you can ask for. External drives may get the job done, but nothing out there will beat this drive.

The Seagate 4TB Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series X|S delivers precisely what it promises: massive capacity and deep integration with Microsoft’s next-gen console architecture. For gamers who want to keep their entire library installed and ready to launch, this card offers the most convenient and console-native solution. It functions like internal storage, requires no setup, and fully supports features like Quick Resume, DirectStorage, and fast load times.
