Frequently Asked Questions

The amount of extra storage you need for your Xbox Series X|S largely depends on your gaming habits. Here are some factors to consider:

  • Average Gamers: If you play games regularly but only play a few games at a time, an extra 1TB or 2TB of storage might be beneficial. This will give you plenty of room for several larger games and many smaller games.
  • Heavy Gamers: If you play games very frequently, play a wide variety of games, or simply want to install many games at once without worrying about storage, you might want to consider a larger expansion, such as a 2TB or 4TB NVMe SSD.
