Users can make their nine-year-old console feel new after getting accessories that enhance gameplay and improve the experience. Various third-party devices increase performance and make things convenient while changing the look of your setup.

Running out of storage is common when you own a console, and getting an external storage device is the best solution. The Samsung T7 Portable SSD has fast transfer speeds with read speeds of 10,50 MB/s and write speeds of 1,000 MB/s.

The SSD has a USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection that Xbox One will not take full advantage of, but it can be carried over to the next generation of consoles that will make better use of this SSD.

An SSD will not only be extra storage for your console, it will also speed up your games and users will barely have to wait for titles to load. After plugging in the SSD, the console will format it to make it readable, and the games can be used on other Xbox One consoles as well.
