Seagate Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series X|S 2TB Solid State Drive - NVMe Expansion SSD for Xbox Series X|S (STJR2000400)

Gamertag- SJR51GAMEROk so 1st thing is don’t get 1tb version , get 512gb or 2tb , as many on YouTubers have done transfer speed tests noted that 1tb is not able to reach 6Gbps transfer speed like the other 2 cards from Seagate as they are the newer versions . So I got the 2TB card.Yeah it’s expansive but it’s not suited for everyone. The thing is that this is not a storage solution , there are cheaper options available to solve your storage issue. Usb 3.0 hdd could provide you with reliable storage solution for way cheaper price. Transfer speed would range between 60-90 mb/s (as xbox shows approx 600-900 Mbps) Any kind of ssd which connects to xbox via usb will give transfer speed of max 1.5Gbps. At this option it reaches the usb speed limit (if I’m correct).The Xbox storage expression cards is only for those who value time more over everything else. So basically it’s for those who can’t wait for the transfer to complete and then play the game. Like those who get just a little time to play games but have a lot of games and want the freedom to play the game they feel like playing right then and there.I have an old Seagate 2TB hdd that I used since Xbox One. It still works perfectly but as I get older I don’t get much time to play games and so I don’t want to spend the little time I get to play in waiting for the game to complete the transfer of the game from external to internal storage as the games now days are getting bigger and bigger. So instead of waiting I choose to get the card and just keep the games in the card and play directly from the card.Now I don’t store games in the internal storage just to be safe and keep everything at one place.Features1. Quick ResumeMost important feature is that it supports “Quick Resume”. You can unplug the card / turn off xbox / unplug xbox , don’t play for couple of days , come back and turn on xbox , insert the card and you’ll see the game in the Quick Resume waiting for you to play.2. StorageYou’ll be able to keep a few extra games to play at anytime3. Transfer speedsAlthough no point in transferring once the game is stored on the card as you can play the games same as on the internal storage. But just incase you need to know , it hits approx 6Gbps(the 512GB and 2TB cards from Seagate)Let me go in a bit detailCopy speedI(Internal) to C(The Card) - range from 1 to 5 GbpsC to I - around 6 GbpsMove speedI to C- range from 1 to 5 GbpsC to I - around 6 GbpsTransferring from external storage to Card will be the same speed as you get in transferring from external to internal storage.Thing to know.This is an Nvme ssd solution. So this also has the same pros and cons of Nvme. I also started keeping my games in the Card only because I want to prolong my internal storage lifespan as they are not replaceable. I don’t want to go in detail but in short it’s better to keep everything in the Card and use less of the internal storage.GG!

The product is the best HDD available in market. It comes with 3.2 USB transfer rate and the files are getting transferred in a go. Give it a try.

Fast and simple setup. Works as intended and while not as fast as the WD SN850 SSD of the same capacity in my PS5, it's impressively fast nonetheless.Moving Series games from my external HDD to the expansion card happened seamlessly but I did have to remove it from my Xbox Series X and restart the console before I could play games from it since I kept seeing an error. If you face issues, try reinserting the card and restarting your console -- it should work then.I would have rated it 4 stars instead of 5 considering how expensive it is but that's how it is for us taxpayers in India and not a fault of Microsoft/Seagate or the seller so I didn't deduct any stars.Overall, a recommended purchase if you're willing to digest the cost and want to avoid frequently moving Series games between the internal SSD and an external HDD.

1) Price: Very hesitant to buy first. But few days back saw this for just Rs 26000 at a special deal. Got additional discount of 2000 on card and also 6 month not cost EMI. Had pinch twice to believe.2) Performance: Unmatched. 6.4 Gbps which internal transfer. Copying from external drives also very quick.3) Worth Buying: ABSOLUTLY

Yes it's expensive for 2tb it give you what you need it's not Amazons fault to decrease stars they sold me legitimate product unopened clean packaging thanks Amazon you can use a ssd or hard with usb but you can only store 360 xbox one games that's kinda not enough next gens games are coming out so your spending all your inernel space by the time another game comes out you don't have enough space you have to sacrifice a game but this guy right here solution for everything use your SSD or harddisk to store 360 one games store new gens in expansion card i like this easy to install move around anywhere go to your friends house he has series s whatever play there it's great design don't listen to falls Twitts int Twitter it doesn't heat up it doesn't broke in. 3 monthsI will update this review after 3 months let's see

Series S comes with 500 GB of on-board memory we need to expand their space so that we can install more games. The expansion hard drive serves this purpose albeit it’s on the expensive side.

It’s a bit pricier but still a very simple way to expand storage. Performance wise there is no difference between this and the internal built in storage

Using this made me realise why there is a huge price difference between this and SSD. I have this as well as a 1TB SSD attached to my Xbox Series X. I can easily play any game stored on expansion card directly from it without having to move it to internal storage. Whereas while trying to do the same with an external SSD, I was only able to play older games from it and that too with visible lag at some places.
