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.
Xbox Expansion Cards
WD C50 1TB - $125 (was $150) | Seagate 2TB - $230 (was $270)
This 1TB WD Black C50 deal matches the all-time lowest price at Amazon. We've only seen the $125 price a handful of times since the card's launch last year. Though it's not as substantial of a discount, Amazon is also has a promotion on the 512GB C50 that drops the price from $80 to $70.
The WD Black C50 is one of two official storage solutions. The only other alternative is Seagate's Expansion Card, which is going for $140 (was $150) for its 1TB model at Amazon. The C50 is clearly the better deal at the moment for a 1TB card, especially since both devices accomplish the same thing.
But if you want to further maximize your storage capacity, Seagate is the only manufacturer with the 2TB Xbox Expansion Card. For a limited time, you can get the 2TB Seagate Expansion Card for a $40 discount, dropping the price from $270 to $230.
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.
