Seagate Unveils 4TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series X|S—Boost Your Storage for $499

Seagate just dropped this behemoth—a 4TB behemoth, mind you—of a storage card for your Xbox Series X|S. Price? A staggering $499.99. Yep, you read that right. Now, they had the 1TB and 2TB options out for a while, but let’s be real for a sec—games are getting huge. Like, “takes up all your life savings in digital space” huge. I mean, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 can chomp 400GB if you’re into ticking every single box.

This new expansion thingy? It’s like an endless pantry for your Xbox. You can cram it with all your favorite games and not worry about the dreaded “no space left” message. So satisfying, right? And let’s not even start on those updates that freeze halfway because, oh look, you ran out of storage. Ever happen to you? Ugh.

Anyway, this 4TB guy is like the others in the family—1TB, 2TB—just bulkier in storage. It clicks right in, matching your Xbox like they were destined lovers or something. None of that “transfer to SSD” nonsense. Nah, you play straight from this card. Say it with me: fancy.

And get this, Seagate’s cards are exclusive buddies with Microsoft’s Xbox Velocity Architecture—faster loads, less waiting, more playing. Plus, running those classic backward-compatible games is smoother, like butter on warm bread. Why’d I think of bread just now? No clue.

Now, this big boy is $499.99, but hey, Best Buy is tossing a $70 discount. Tempting, right? Swing by Amazon or, if you’re in the UK, places like Argos or Scan got you covered. It’s funny, though—the 4TB’s about the same cash as the Xbox Series X itself. Feel like a splurge yet?
