always good to base buying decisions on hype and fomo and not a released product the realities of which are fully known to you

It's $360 in AUD, which is a nice little callback.

They dropped the price of the Series S in Japan before it even came out. Drop the Series X price, do it.

Prices don't come down that fast and in Australia we have to pay the unofficial Tech Tax. (Hi Apple, Adobe, Nvidia, Intel, MYOB)

Upgrading your Playstation hard drive will start slightly higher, but will drop a lot quicker, the Microsoft one probably won't drop much, if at all.

I don't think it was said anywhere that Seagate would be the exclusive and only maker of Xbox expansion drives. They have an existing branding deal with Microsoft and it's possible that there's some type of exclusivity clause but we could never know. Don't expect anything either way. Use cold storage.

even if there are other companies making them a proprietary drive made for a single product line is never going to be manufactured on a large enough scale to compete with pricing on a completely standardized part used across an entire industry
