Seagate Game Drive for Xbox, 2TB, External Hard Drive Portable, USB 3.2 Gen 1, Black with built-in green LED bar, Xbox Certified, 2 year Rescue Services (STKX2000400)

Product Information

USB 3.0 biedt een intense gamebeleving, waardoor het lijkt alsof je vanaf de harde schijf van je console speelt.

The Samsung T7 was once the fastest portable SSD around, and it’s still a hugely popular drive. It’s a sleek, fantastically robust little drive with an aluminium unibody, available in blue, red or titanium grey. It also comes with both a USB-C cable and the USB-A cable you’ll need for the new Xbox consoles. In our tests it was, at worst, a second or two slower to load games than the internal SSD, while in some cases performance was virtually identical. The only catch is that the T7 still commands quite high prices, so you could save some cash with one of its rivals.

One of two options for increasing your internal Xbox Series X|S storage space. The price has decreased slightly, but you can still expect to spend a lot on these SSDs because they use proprietary technology. It's worth keeping in mind that older games do benefit from increased speeds, reducing load times, so there is some benefit to installing them on something faster than a mechanical hard drive like Seagate's model, which runs at up to 120MB/s. By contrast, the proprietary Xbox Series X|S storage runs at 2.4GB/s uncompressed, which is quite the gulf. You may not realise it, but purchasing the best external hard drive for your PS5 can really make a difference to your PlayStation experience. Despite its awesome power, the PS5’s storage space can be a real cause for concern; even with just a handful of PlayStation 5 games installed and a few PS4 classics, you can soon find yourself running out of space. An added benefit, of course, is that the Seagate Storage Expansion Card is also extremely fast, and we were able to transfer the entire 104.6GB Red Dead Redemption 2 file in less than three minutes during our tests. If you’ve got the money, and you’re fast approaching the upper limits of your Xbox’s internal storage, then there’s simply no better external storage option at the moment.

Profiteer van SSD-snelheden en -prestaties in een stijlvol, licht, schokbestendig en draagbaar design.Enorme capaciteit, stijlvol design en skins met een beperkte oplage om uw Xbox-gamingbeleving een extra boost te geven. With games this big, it makes sense to expand your PS5’s storage capabilities with an external hard drive. Unfortunately, since external drives are too slow to run PS5 games, you can only store titles on them rather than play games from there directly – for that you’ll need to install a compatible NVMe SSD. Instead, what external drives are great for is housing an extensive library of PS4 games as these can be played without a hitch. This avoids taking up valuable PS5 storage with games that don’t need to be there.

You want more space: Capping at a 1TB model, you won’t have drastically more storage space to work with.With twice as much capacity as a similarly-priced SSD, the 2TB and 4TB versions will give you enough room to hold a sizable game library too. Unless every second counts, this drive is a great addition to your PS5 setup. Those few drives that do support the best Xbox Series X games are well worth your hard-earned cash. If only because they greatly expand the console’s approximate 800GB of workable storage. Yes, the box might claim 1TB from the get-go, but that’s not including the space required for the Xbox Series X’s operating system. It’s a similar story on the Xbox Series S, too, which only features roughly 364GB of operational storage despite the 512GB claim.

However, previous-gen Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles can be run from these drives with a slight bump in load times, though. Read on, then, to learn more about the best Xbox Series X hard drives and SSDs to help boost storage and performance for your console. On the other end of the spectrum, sometimes you have money to burn, and you need to store a LOT of games. 8TB of space means it's technically possible to fill it up completely, but realistically, this is the only external hard drive you'd ever need.If you’re after a cheap, no-frills hard drive expansion for your Xbox Series X|S console, it’s hard to go wrong with the Toshiba Canvio Basics hard drive, which punches slightly above its weight thanks to its reliability and affordable price tag.
