One of the unspoken sadnesses about owning a PS4 or an Xbox One is the amount of time you spend organising downloads so you have enough space for the next big update or new game download. That drain on your precious free time can be a thing of the past with this Amazon Prime Day External Hard Drive bargain.

For just $58.99 you can add a lovely 2TB of storage to your Xbox One or PS4, simply by plugging the drive into a USB port on the console. That's a huge upgrade and should mean you don't have to worry about storage space for a long time.

Don't pretend that this external drive for your PS4 or Xbox One doesn't get you excited.

This external hard drive, discounted for Amazon Prime Day, is especially useful if you own an Xbox One X. The 4K console likes giving massive 100GB downloads now and again, so the extra space will be very useful. If you're fed up for deleting games when you should be playing games, I recommend giving an external drive a look. It might not be a glamorous purchase, but it'll be one you never regret making.

Amazon Prime day continues until midnight on July 17. Check out all the main Amazon Prime Day Video Game deals on our dedicated page.

Sometimes we include links to online retail stores. If you click on one and make a purchase we may receive a small commission. See our terms & conditions.

Tom started life on a circus in Australia before his family moved to the UK. His love of gaming started soon after, which essentially meant he bought every video game magazine available and worked numerous part-time jobs as a child in order to afford costly N64 games. He created UK site VideoGamer.com, of which he was the Editor for over a decade. He now doesn't like circuses.
