Starting today, Amazon has significantly reduced the price of the officially licensed WD Black C50 1TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series consoles, now available for just $109.99 shipped. This represents a 30% discount from its initial $158 list price, marking the lowest price seen for an officially licensed 1TB Xbox expansion card since Black Friday. The WD Black C50 stands out as one of the top SSD options for Xbox, which is not surprising given the limited choices available.

The WD Black C50 expansion card is essentially a 1TB NVMe SSD housed in a specialized shell designed for Xbox compatibility. Unlike the more involved process of installing an SSD in a PS5, which requires opening the console to access the SSD slot, the WD expansion card simply plugs into a dedicated port on the back of the Xbox. This ensures that it matches the speed of the internal SSD, preventing any performance loss or increased load times that might occur with a standard USB drive. With a 1TB capacity, this card can double the storage on your Xbox Series X and triple it on the Xbox Series S.
For those seeking an officially licensed storage solution (which we highly recommend), the options are limited to either WD or Seagate expansion cards. This makes it crucial to take advantage of a great deal when it appears.
