Xbox Series X / S

[I.am.Sam]

Saw that but supplier is always out of stock, and I don't think that is the genuine retail price. Also saw another version coming to market not from Seagate, but don't know when those will hit our shores, given the Seagate one is always out of stock.

yeah there is a WD one

have you checked with BT games and all

 

[I.am.Sam]

Sell the S and buy a Series X. Its what I did and its literally cheaper than buying an expansion card.

yeah if he is in CPT il give him 3500 for his series s

You also do know that XB One and older games can be installed and played off a normal USB drive?

Yip have two external hard drives doing that, but that Series S internal hard drive fills up very quickly, and don't feel like moving Starfield and especially Forza around all the time to manage that

Yeah thats the problem with 379 Gb of space. Starfield + Forza will take all of it leaving no space for anything else.

Agreed, so have to make a plan. Series X or expansion card.....

 

[Goosfrabba]

Would the 1TB Series S not be an option when it releases?

Series X. You also get the performance benefit in addition to the storage. Plus a disc drive if you still have previous gen Xbox games on disc...

What the X has a disc drive? /s

I don't even know if mine works

I guess so, do we know what that price would be? Series X though does offer better performance though so if I'm close on price that should be the best option

With that performance comes power Series X a lot more power hungry

Same, never used it yet. But at least the option is there if you ever want to revisit your old library...
