Microsoft XSX host creates a new category of SSD Seagate hard disk

Microsoft combined with Seagate to create an expansion card on XSX. The size is only 1/3 as large as a bus card. The Seagate 1TB expansion card has been on sale recently, priced at 1999 yuan.

The new generation host PS5 and XSX are already on the market. The standard SSD hard disk capacity is less than 1TB, and the available space is small. If you want to expand, you have to use a mobile hard disk, but I am afraid that the speed cannot keep up with the native SSD, and the size It is also a problem.

On XSX and XSS, Microsoft and Seagate have created a mini-expansion card with a dedicated interface. The hard disk is only 7.8×31.6×52.95mm, which is about the same size as the 1/3 bus card, which is very small.

In terms of performance, this expansion card supports PCIe 4.0 x2, seamlessly integrates Microsoft’s Xbox Vlocity architecture, and has the same experience as the original SSD.

In terms of price, Seagate’s hard drive has a capacity of 1TB, and the domestic price is 1999 yuan. The price is not low, almost 2-3 times that of mainstream 1TB SSD hard drives. After all, it is a dedicated product, but it is superior in size.
