Grab The WD Black Xbox Expansion Card For A Great Price
Expanding your Xbox Series X|S is as simple as plugging in this slick expansion card from WD Black.
If you're running out of space on your Xbox Series X|S, now's a great time to fix that pesky problem. The WD Black C50 1TB Xbox storage expansion card is on sale for $125 at Amazon and Best Buy for Black Friday 2023. If you want to increase your storage capacity of your Xbox Series X|S without making any concessions, you need an officially licensed, proprietary expansion card--the C50 is one of two that'll do the trick.
WD Black C50 Xbox Expansion Card (1TB)
$125 (was $150)
To get the WD Black 1TB C50 deal, you need to log into your My Best Buy account and purchase through the retailer's mobile app.
You can run out of space on your Xbox Series X|S surprisingly fast. The Series X has 802GB of usable space, while the 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. The WD Black C50 is one of two official storage solutions. Your alternative is Seagate's Expansion Card, which is going for full retail price of $150 at Amazon--Amazon is also selling the WD Black C50 for $150.
Western Digital also has a 512GB C50 for $80, in case you don't think you need 1TB and want to save some cash.
These dedicated expansion cards offer the benefit of both storing and running games directly from this little storage device. Without an expansion card, running out of storage space means either deleting games and downloading again later or transferring games to an external hard drive. But only Xbox One games can be played off of a portable drive; you cannot play Xbox Series X|S games not stored on your internal drive without a Western Digital or Seagate expansion card.
The C50 is also an attractive piece of portable technology, as this card features WD Black's trademark industrial aesthetic. As mentioned, this is actually the second officially licensed expansion card for Xbox Series X|S cards, as Seagate launched its own version alongside the consoles when they were first made available in late 2020. Only the Western Digital expansion card is on sale at this time.
