    Sorry for a noob question, my son has run out of space on his Xbox one S (1Tb) and needs extra storage.

    Is it as simple as buying an external disk an plugging in or does it have to be a special one for ?

    Argos had this 4TB for 84.99. It was available to order, not sure if it's still possible

    I've got notification that my reservations for this drive are in. I'm wondering will they honor the price at that time?

    Amazon have a decent black Friday sale for the today (they're starting early), also worth looking at the wd site they've huge discounts on refurbish (used & repaired) HDD but stock is limited and usually out of stock.

    So I went into Argos in Blanchardstown, used the self service machine and it came up with the original price or €130, went to the till and asked the girl behind it about the reservation, she put it in and confirmed the price but she discounted it down to what it was 2 weeks ago which was pretty cool
