Are you okay? Is the xbox in the room with us now?

 

[Dr.Morris79]

I am never going to get over that price though for what it is, and the basic shite it actually does

 

[Astray]

I got the 1TB way back when I went to France for my honeymoon, it was discounted and I managed to get a tax refund on it too.

Not sure why anyone needs more than 2TB total storage though.

 

[Kacho]

You better hope this is compatible with the next Xbox

I don't get it either. I only have games installed that I'm actually playing and I rarely play more than one game at a time.

 

[Sorcerer]

I saw the launch price was 70 dollars cheaper than it will be, so I said eff it.
Theoretically, I won't have to worry about space anymore.

I know you will get a lot of pushback, but if I were still into Xbox, I would get one also. For me if your into a system and its the most pain free way to enjoy it, then why not. I do love that its just placing the card in the slot in the back, even if it is overpriced. I bought the 1gb at the time withought hesitation.

 

[Parazels]

Everything will be downloadable in the future. You not seen Xbox's latest strategy?

You library is in safe hands.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Are you retarded?

This was my immediate question. The perfect first reply

$429 is not "pain free"

I got that on sale and couldn't imagine going below 2 TB now. I easily fill it up with just a fraction of stuff I'm interested in. I dont really need more than 2, but I could easily use it if I had it.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

 

[Unknown?]

Should have put that money in a 1/10th gold coin.

[clarky]

Missed the /s off I guess.

Besides everything in my loft can be downloaded and played on my PC without me ever having to get my hands dirty. Regardless of what happens in the future everything will be available one way or the other.

A windows pc is the least trustworthy thing in my universe.

"Good luck!"

No of course not, I meant in that you just place the card in the back.

 

[Three]

So that crap is actually $500 and they're pretending to give you a discount at launch? I was laughing at $429 when this thing silently released at $429 but it being removed then coming back at $500 is hilarious.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

I bought Western Digital SN850X 4TB for only $249 last year during sales sales sales

This is PCMR way, not just bigger specs but bigger bargain hunters… I thought of saying bigger brains, but that's hurtful

That and 22TB external drive for archiving.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

I hope this purchase was after the $7k into a Roth IRA.

 

[small_law]

I'm a complete sucker for maxing out storage on my PC and consoles, but this is one toke over the line.

 

[UltimaKilo]

I have a 1TB expansion card on my XBOX. I don't know what I'd need that much storage for.

 

[Magic Carpet]

I looked for the socket on that Xbox ROG Ally handheld but could not find one. I assume you might as well glue that 4TB into the Xbox as that's where it's going to live forever.

What part of the world do you hail from goodsir? MONGolia?

Seagate is making one of the 3000 partner neXtBoxes...I am sure it will have the slot.

 

[baphomet]

That 1 sale covered all the R&D on them and probably more.

 

[ReasonBeing]

Why are you so much cooler than me

 

[Zacfoldor]

I can't believe they sold one of these.

I do have a question.

Do you work for or have you ever been employed by Microsoft?

I can't imagine a dude off the street bought this with no backstory. What's the story my bro, the full story? Were you tired of COD being so big in size? Detail us!

Also, Hotel Dusk FTMFW!

 

[Embearded]

Do you pay your ISP oer GB you download and you need such a big storage?

 

[Ar¢tos]

Wouldn't upgrade your Internet speed be cheaper and also more useful for other things besides gaming?

You have 4TB of space now but you can't even store porn there...

 

[LordCBH]

I imagine someone at Microsoft is having the same reaction to OP buying the $500 SSD as someone at WinRAR does when some idiot actually buys a license to that.

 

[poppabk]

Does it slide in smoothly, almost luxuriously and then lock in place with a satisfying click?
Was that feeling worth $250?
If not - what exactly did you pay for?

 

[rkofan87]

x box let them make a 4tb card a bout time

 

[Calverz]

Do you guys remember the fake outrage because Sony opted for standardized approach and people had to open PS5 cover to upgrade?

Those were the days man

No but I remember people saying how great it was that the memory card was then locked to one system, rather than being able to plug and play on multiple devices. Remember it well

 

[iHaunter]

I saw the launch price was 70 dollars cheaper than it will be, so I said eff it.
Theoretically, I won't have to worry about space anymore.

First question is why you need 4+ TB for a console.

fanboys going fanboy lol

 

[jaydogg691]

Waiting for the 2TB to drop under $200 so I can upgrade my Series S storage.

 

[Deerock71]

I would've got a Switch 2 with that money.

 

[Goalus]

I want to know whether it will be available in Europe too.

 

[intbal]

Tests on the first releases of the 1TB Seagate card showed that it performed slightly worse than the internal drive in game loading.
Have you compared loading speeds on this 4TB card versus a like-for-like loading scenario on the internal drive?
Larger SSDs have always performed better than the smaller units in the same family. I'm just wondering if they have reached performance parity with the internal drive now.

Did it fit into your slot?

 

[Crayon]

I want to sell you some things. Friend prices.

"Fake outrage"?
This fact convinced me to never buy a PS5.

I want to sell you some things. Friend prices.

What do you have in mind?
If it's a PS5, it needs to be less than $50.

 

[Moses85]

 

[Esca]

You do know you can delete games from storage right.

 

[Crayon]

It's a rock. I thought op might like to smoke it. $100.
