Which one do you have?? Xbox Series Update!

Who wouldve thought 20 years later xbox would bring back the idea of a memory card. I know people who have multiple with different games and saves downloaded onto em, even has one strictly for game footage and screen shot. They use the ssd that plugs in the like a modernday ps2 memory card

But are they PC compatible?

I think some of the copy attempts you show us must be cached by the time you do reruns

You probably hit the throttling limit of SLC imitation with the Star game

Lol I just bought a 500gb sata SSD from CEX and ebay USB sata adaptor

What's the name of this music of the intro

Whoa whoa. Did the exclusivity end?

It’s Ralph Macchio!!!

Man, I remember in 2003 when my son opened his playstation 2 for Christmas just to sell it and buy an xbox. I'm going to be honest I never found out until he moved out around 2010 and wondered why the hell there was a leftover xbox in his closet

The seagate 1TB is slower than the 2TB

mexican?indian?

Anyways. To save people money. You can still use your old gen externals to store new gen games on to transfer move them to internal.
Now do you really want to spend 200 or more dollars when patience is free? 200 more dollars to maybe wait 5 minutes less than what the old externals can do? I definitely won't. If you have Xbox Series X and a patient person. You simply definitely do not need any of these. New gen games need internal hard drive. Or you can spend more money on an expansion to have 100 games you are not playing at the same time. All of this is pointless unless you seriously can't just wait a few extra minutes. 😅

Thanks for detailed comparison. Can you post a link to your TV stand?

There no mention mentioning of 2nd Xbox site of 2nd Xbox series x other than one on market with green light.😊

FULL ANALOG!!!
Uses a digital stopwatch 😂🤣

I like Seagate best...🤘🏼💯✔️

I subscribed just off the 80s intro. Solid

I am saving my internal 1TB storage for GTA 6 when it coming out. Lol

One is very expensive for this expansion, esp when you see the see the price you would pay for a normal NVME M.2 either 1 or 2 tb, not only that it is very hard to get the 2tb expansion anywhere in Ireland.

6 gigabite internet speed 😦

Geez will somebody do a video on whether or not these will enhance the performance of the games themselves. If all its going to do is transfer games faster and download games faster i really dont care there is no way im paying half the price of an XSX for a 2tb if it just transfers games in storage quicker. I want to know will this stabilize FPS, 4k make everything run more efficiently in the game. Somebody do a side by side comparison of that. Man this is frustrating. Its always the same oh look how fast it transfers a game. Who cares. If thats it people are getting ripped off for that 2tb

My Dad went to a hard drive repair place, said the majority 90% of hdds there were Seagate. They are inferior. I buy everything WD.

After a year or so of series x being out u could n u can still buy custom empty storage card casing n then u just needed a ssd to install in it, just ur xbox needed to accept it. To some people it was a cheaper option n for a while was a better option as the segate cards were unable to get hold of due to high demand. Then western digital came out with theirs to provide more options.

They’re the same they’re the same price same everything

Too much wording for a simple data transfer benchmark.

Something was “off” there. The Seagate drive was peaking at about 6.4 to 6.5 GB/sec transfers, and the WD was only managing just under 6 at best. I think that the big difference was that finalization process. 🤔

6Gb/s(about 800MB/s) is pathetically slow for a Nvme SSD, especially in 2024. I have an Nvme SSD with a 20Gb/s enclosure and on Xbox Series X USB it works only at maximum 2.5Gb/s(300MB/s). MS made the Xbox with limited USB bandwidth to force us to buy their expensive and yet pathetic Expansion Drives.

I had the Seagate with my first series S, got the western digital with my current series X and overheated the system and it cooked through western digital, so back to the Seagate expansion card

is there a 8tb of any kind

should've done each test 10 time then take average times out of the 10 tests per file, per card.
this vtest was completely useless, because you even found yourself that with the one test when you did it twice you had a 25% time difference in the same card.

I bought one. Now I have to buy another one for videos. I dont have a computer to reformat the SSD. Didnt know once you format for storage you cant redo the format unless you have a computer. So keep that in mind before you format one.

I do have a USB-SSD on my XBox Series. It's a Crucial X8 2TB which often did go for like 80 bucks.

That's really helpful.

For the load time comparison it would have been nice to see you use the load time from the internal SSD as the baseline. So we could also get an idea on how the expansion card actually compares to the internal drive.

For me if the test results were reversed Seagate quicker, i would still buy WD black, just for the fact that Seagate way overpriced the card at first when it came out

What we need is an adapter that allows any m.2 nvme with sufficient speed.

Ill go for seagate for 2tb option than wd with 500gb or 1tb

Hes going full analog baby! ..But with a digital stop-watch! LUL

You can have an external SSD. it's going to be much slower transfer speeds / performance than the m.2 style expansion slot, but I think you're throwing around the term SSD too loosely.

Yeah you forget solid state drives will be fast between SSD to SSD drives now the real speed test is hdd to ssd

I have a complaint right away! A Digitial Stop watch is not going full analog!!!

and the price isnt that different.... for my xbox one u can just insert a xbox external drive whoch was 80$(sgd) for 2tb

Got 8tb hhd with the series x and the card. So 10tb, but games are going to have to be streamed if they keep going!

"I'm going full analogue " with a digital stopwatch.

No phone used.

Figure you're sh it out.

You have to do it on the internal storage also for a baseline

ngl got trapped in for the simple fact this man drops a playstaysion 4

They also have M.2 expansion adapters for the Xbox

finishing things up is when it takes the downloaded parts and assembles them in the most efficient way

I have 2 of the 2tb seagate cards got too many series x games now and seriously moving from one drive to the next without these cards sucks
