Wait, you can't buy regular drives anymore? That's actually kind of fucked

You can, but you can't play Series games on it. Only previous generation games. Same as on PS5.

on PS5 you can buy any brand SSD drive and it will work. only microsoft locks the system to use authorized hardware

Sorry, I took "regular" to mean external drives, not non-proprietary internal drives. Last gen you could use an external HDD to expand your storage without any issues. This gen you can still do it, but its use is limited.
