The expensive Seagate Expansion cards for the Xbox Series X/S are finally receiving a much-needed price cut. the official Announcing the Xbox Twitter account Seagate’s current selection of 512GB, 1TB, and 2TB memory cards are now available for a lower price of $89.99, $149.99, and $279.99, respectively. This effectively takes the cards’ recent discounted selling prices and turns them into actual price reductions, which should soon be reflected at all retailers that carry them.
While those prices are still a bit on the high side compared to other forms of non-proprietary SSD storage, it’s still a nice drop of $80 on 2TB and $50 on 1TB and 512GB (if you can find the latter anywhere). place). Of course, it’s now two and a half years since the current generation, and the PlayStation 5’s more universal approach to extra SSD storage means owners can take advantage of much cheaper prices (it’s very easy to find a PS5-compatible M.2 1TB SSD for around $70). .
Hopefully, this means Xbox expansion cards may finally get steeper discounts when big sale events come around, like Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and especially once competing cards become available.
