Got an Xbox for Christmas? Increase storage capacity to the max with this best-ever deal on a 2TB WD Black C50
The largest available Xbox expansion card has never been this cheap
Today's deal is absolutely fantastic news for Xbox console owners new and old. If you already own either of Microsoft's Series X or Series S consoles then you are already aware of the limited storage capacity of the console and the constant need to micromanage the games stored.
You may have even been gifted a new Xbox console from Santa recently. If so, you can pick up this 2TB Western Digital WD_Black C50 expansion card for just $189 from Amazon. This is the lowest-ever price the 2TB version of the C50 has ever been and works out cheaper than picking up two of the lower capacity 1TB expansion cards. The MSRP price of the 2TB WD_Black C50 is $259, with the typical sale price being $220, so this discount of $189 is a great deal.
The only option to increase this storage capacity on the latest Xbox consoles is with a proprietary expansion card slotted into the rear of the console. Options are limited and nothing compared to the choice of M.2 SSD options you can pick for the PlayStation 5, but installation is far easier and more convenient.
