Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X can use storage expansions to increase their hard disk size. The price of the 1 TB expansion has been revealed.
Microsoft has partnered with Seagate to create a storage expansion card for the Xbox Series S and X. Since the next-generation of consoles come with their own custom storage solutions with the ultra-fast NVMe flash memory, they need a special storage expansion card for this purpose.

XSX will ship with a 1 TB NVMe flash memory while the Xbox Series S is smaller at 512 GB. The large file sizes of next-generation games mean that this storage space will quickly run out. As a result, these expansion storage cards are needed to add more space to the Xbox Series S and X while maintaining the optimal performance benchmark.
According to SmythsToysUK as reported by Eurogamer, the price of this 1 TB storage expansion is listed as £159.99, which roughly translates to $205. This is also closer to the leaked price for the 1 TB storage expansion, which was rumored to be $220.
