SanDisk's new Optimus line provides more storage options for Xbox players with its new up to 2TB expansion cards

A new 1TB Xbox Series X comes with a $799.99 price tag, so investing in a brand-new console if your old Xbox needs more space for games is not the most financially sound option. As always, I'd much sooner recommend dusting your old console off with some upgraded storage, but that too can be a pricey endeavour with SSD prices fluctuating all the time.

At least Xbox hard drive options haven't taken as dramatic a hit when it comes to eye-watering price increases, and SanDisk's newly unveiled Optimus GX C50 Storage Expansion Cards are providing more opportunities to grab more affordable launch prices. The brand new cards are available in 512B, 1TB, and 2TB capacities for the Xbox Series X/S for $109.99 / £88.99, $199.99 / £177.99, and $339.99 / £249.99, according to the official SanDisk product page. There's no release date listed on SanDisk's site, but with alternatives like the 1TB WD - C50 sitting at $374.99 at Best Buy, grabbing these as soon as possible would be a wise (and cost-effective) move.
