1TB+ in total between the main drive/additional internal should be more than enough…that’s honestly about 20 decent-sized games
I'm skeptical that people are really playing that many games at once. I know I'm probably an outlier, but even though I have like 10 games of varying sizes on my Series X, I'm only playing 2 or 3 of them and realistically could get rid of the rest.

I can only speak for myself but for me it’s more so games that I started and got sidetracked from that I’d like to revisit/continue…also a lot of them are games where I can pick up and play for 30 minutes or so like 2k, GTA online, fortnite etc. but ya for the most part I’m only seriously rotating 2-3 single player games with the intention of finishing them off in a week or so

Yeah, i usually only play one game at a time, but it’s annoying having to delete a game i didn’t really get a chance to dig into yet or finish.

I’d realistically probably be good with a extra 1tb but i feel its better to be safe than sorry and just get the 2tb. Next year with all the big games coming out and PSVR2 i dont wanna play musical chairs as much

I have a 5-6 game rotation at any given time split between two groups:

Continuous plays - Destiny 2, Latest COD, FFXIV/Genshin Impact - these never leave the system as I play them between new releases or when new content is available within them.

New plays - Currently:: Deathloop, F.I.S.T and Kena - newer or recently released games that I may be juggling. something could be shifted to be backlog at anytime if a new title drops or I promote something from the backlog that I'm really interested in.

Yeah I think I'm about to start a 2-3 game rotation myself so I can cut into my backlog. Right now I'm playing Judgment (the first one) & COD: Cold War but I might come back to that later and try to finish TLOU 2 or Ghost of Tsushima.

2tb SSd back down to $280

SAMSUNG 980 PRO M.2 2280 2TB PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.3c Samsung V-NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-V8P2T0B/AM - Newegg.com

1tb SSD $127 with a trade in of any storage unit type at Best Buy

In Store Stacking Two Best Buy Offers: $127.50 WD SN850 NVME 1TB - works on other WD/SanDisk products


Compare this with the prices in the OP…..:whew:

Glad i waited for black friday
Meanwhile I can't get extra storage for my Series X at a reasonable price. 1tb here cost almost as much as that 2tb drive on sale. I don't even want 2tb on the PS5 cause at that point I feel like I'm spending extra just to have games download I'm likely not actively playing.

I ordered my 2nd unit from samsung…don’t know if my experience is the norm but they didn’t update me on the shipping at all…I have both a fedex and UPS account so the only reason I found out it shipped is I logged in (can’t remember if it was fedex or UPS) and saw I had a package otw…how long ago did you order it? I don’t think it took more than a week for mine to arrive…but again they never updated me on the shipping even tho they were supposed to

I ordered last week and got a shipping notification Friday. It was supposed to be here Saturday then Sunday then tomorrow but it still hasn’t been dropped off to FedEx.

It was an impulse buy since I was using Rakuten + Card points + extra cash back but I would cancel it if I could. I had another set of issues trying to update my shipping info and can’t even hold it at FedEx because of Samsung insisting on not allowing shipping changes.
