Console Expansion Analysis
Expand your game library with the Corsair EX100U - 2.0TB of 1.6 GB/s storage purpose-built for consoles and gaming PCs.
Game-Ready Performance
With 1.6 GB/s reads and 1.5 GB/s writes, the Corsair EX100U delivers load times that rival internal SSDs. Level transitions, fast travel, and open-world asset streaming all benefit from the jump over traditional HDD external storage - expect 3-5× faster load times in most titles.
Capacity for the Modern Library
2.0TB of storage holds an estimated 25-51 AAA titles, depending on install size. That is enough space for an active rotation of multiplayer titles alongside a deep single-player backlog, without juggling uninstalls.
Best paired with
- Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 for external game storage
- Gaming laptops with limited internal SSD space
- Steam Deck and ROG Ally for portable game libraries
- Rapid game switching without HDD thrash
While USB-connected externals store and play Xbox Series X|S and PS5 titles, native internal SSDs may be required for full next-gen optimized performance on certain titles.
