Xbox One S Additional Storage

While microsoft s initial run of xbox one s consoles includes 500 gb 1 tb and even 2 tb options users will eventually face the same issue we see on smartphones and tablets.

Xbox one s additional storage.

Microsoft has confirmed that like the series x series s will support the seagate storage expansion card. However any series x s games that you want to play will need to be moved to either the internal storage or one of these pricey seagate ssds. The easy microsoft approved way to expand your xbox one s hard drive space is to add an external hard drive. The foundation of the xbox velocity architecture is our custom internal ssd delivering 2 4 gb s of raw i o throughput more than 40x the throughput of xbox one.

The seagate expandable storage card was designed using the xbox velocity architecture api to deliver the exact same consistent sustained performance of our internal ssd. The storage cards are confirmed to match the system s internal ssd speed which has been a major point of excitement for both consoles coming out in november. Microsoft has revealed our first look at the 1tb additional storage that players can opt into for the xbox series x s with a price point set at 219 99.
