Is this optional like i can buy and plug in my own external drives to expand storage or is this seagate only way to expand storage on the new xbox?

Yes and no... You can use any old USB 3.0 external hard drive to play backwards-compatible Xbox One, Xbox 360 and original Xbox games. You can even use any old USB 3.0 external hard drive to *STORE* new next-gen enhanced/optimized for Xbox Series X|S games. However, you can only PLAY the new next-gen enhanced/optimized Xbox Series X|S games from the system's internal storage or from one of these expensive Seagate storage expansion cards since they use the fancy new "Xbox Velocity Architecture" which requires this technology. Hope this helps!

Yes!! Get Hot is a complete banger from G Jones.

how many games you can download the seagate storage expansion card 50 games 100 game or 30 20 games how many i have the xbox x

i have serval series S/X games on my hard drive and still have room for more. i would say 5 - 10 games per 1TB easy. as for those who say games are not optimized they are getting optimized while file size are smaller for download when they uncompress or download the rest the file size gets bigger. welcome to 4k resolution textures. 360 and ps3 did not have this problem because back then a large game was a joke 1 - 7gigs. xbox one games are like 7 - 50gigs series X/S games are 15 - 100gigs. Blame the 4k textures and the 50 million HD audio/ Video files.

Will this reduce load times for Series X optimized games?

No. If it takes you 37 seconds to load a Series X game right now, it will take you 37 seconds to load after you install this. But you'll have an extra Terabyte of storage at that speed, allowing you to have more games installed and not have to constantly delete/re-download games.
