As consoles keep moving more and more into digital distribution and away from physical disks, it has become clear that the base storage on the Xbox One simply isn’t enough for the long-term. While you can add just about any portable HDD with a USB 3.0 to your Xbox One, the folks at NYKO have come up with a more stylish and simpler approach. The NYKO Data Bank is a hard drive enclosure designed to attach any 3.5" hard drive to your Xbox One as an external unit. Designed to match the angles and appearance of the Xbox One (as well as attach directly to the top of the console), the Data Bank can be purchased at GameStop, NYKO store or Amazon for MSRP of $39.99. Nothing like customizing your console with the brand, speed and size of hard drive you want.
We will be visiting with the folks at NYKO at the 2016 CES in a few weeks, so expect more console solutions to be announced.
Nyko's Data Bank Hard Drive Enclosure Designed for Xbox Now Available
Expand your console's memory with a 3.5" hard drive enclosure that matches its aesthetics
LOS ANGELES - Dec. 22, 2015 - Leading console accessories manufacturer Nyko today announced the release of the Data Bank for Xbox One, a sleek, streamlined hard drive enclosure that affixes to the top of the console and expands data storage with any 3.5” hard drive. Current enclosures on the market are less visually appealing and are detached from the console, leaving a cable trail and taking up unnecessary space. The Data Bank for Xbox One solves this problem with an enclosure that matches the materials and angles of the console, and simply attaches to the top. You can now purchase the Data Bank at GameStop, Amazon, or the Nyko online store today for MSRP $39.99.
“If gamers purchase at least one new game a month, they’d have to start deleting old games or upgrade storage within the first couple of years after purchasing the Xbox One, ” said Chris Arbogast, Nyko’s head of sales and marketing. “The Data Bank provides the most cost-effective method to make limited save space a thing of the past, in a way that maintains the clean look of the original console design.”
