Starting today, Amazon has dropped the price of the officially licensed WD Black C50 1TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series consoles to $109.99. This represents a 30% discount from its original $158 MSRP and matches the lowest price we've seen for a licensed 1TB Xbox expansion card since Black Friday. The WD Black C50 is a top-performing SSD for Xbox, which is understandable given the limited range of officially supported options.

The WD Black C50 is essentially a 1TB NVMe SSD housed in a specialized, Xbox-certified enclosure. Unlike the PS5 SSD upgrade process, which requires opening the console, this expansion card plugs directly into the dedicated storage port on the back of your Xbox. It delivers the same high-speed performance as the console's internal SSD, so you won't experience slower load times or compromised gameplay like you might with a standard USB drive. Adding a 1TB card effectively doubles the storage of an Xbox Series X and triples the capacity of the (white) Xbox Series S.
For an officially licensed storage solution—which we highly recommend—your choices are limited to either WD or Seagate expansion cards. This makes finding a great deal on one all the more important.
