For October Prime Day (October 8-9), Amazon has dropped the price of the officially licensed WD Black C50 1TB Xbox Expansion Card to a low, low price of $123.49 / £114.99 in the UK, making it one of the best deals for Xbox right now. With limited options for expanding Xbox storage, the WD Black C50 stands out as an excellent pick. Deals like this are rare, so it's worth grabbing one quickly before it sells out.
The WD Black C50 is a 1TB NVMe SSD inside a custom Xbox-compatible shell, designed for an easy installation process compared to the more complex steps required for PS5 SSD upgrades. Simply insert the expansion card into the dedicated port at the back of your Xbox for quick, hassle-free setup.
This card matches the speed of the internal SSD, ensuring no performance drops or increased load times, which can happen with external USB drives. It effectively doubles the storage capacity of an Xbox Series X or triples that of the Xbox Series S.
Unlike the PS5, which offers multiple ways to upgrade high-speed storage, Xbox consoles rely solely on WD or Seagate expansion cards, making this Prime Day deal even more valuable.
What Is October Prime Day?
October Prime Day, or Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days as they like to call it, is a great opportunity to save some serious cash on your favorite hobbies before the Black Friday sales. The annual Fall sale features discounts on thousands of items, with new lightning deals every hour that you won't want to miss.
As one of the biggest sales events to kick off the start of the Black Friday season, it attracts many companies, including those outside of Amazon, offering exclusive discounts available only on Prime Day. If you're already a Prime member, you can access the sale without much bother. But, there's also a free 30-day trial if you're intrigued and just want to check out some of the new discounts.
Prime Day is absolutely one of the best times to buy physical video games and even consoles during the sale (such as the PS5 down to just $449). There are plenty more deals to check out for Switch, PS5, and Xbox.
