This could be a problem for console players though, especially those with a Series S which can't run new games off an external.
Not if you have a PS5. I just added a $99 2TB Samsung 980 Pro to mine. Microsoft really shafted Xbox owners with their Seagate partnershit.
I completely agree, Microsoft shouldn’t have been greedy and used proprietary storage. Sony did it the right way by allowing you to add your own which lets you find a good deal.
Which is ironic since Sony spent two decades trying to make Memory Sticks, UMDs, and MiniDiscs happen. I think they've finally learned their lesson on proprietary storage.
PS5 will also support up to 8TB of additional storage. Series X maxes out at 2TB.
Don't worry, you can buy a Starfield themed external drive that can't actually run Starfield:
