- SanDisk has revealed storage options for the upcoming ROG Xbox Ally Handhelds
- A MicroSD card and NVME SSD will be available “in the coming months”
- They offer up to 2 TB and 4TB of space respectively
If you’ve sorted an ASUS ROG Xbox Ally Prepending next month, you might be able to keep SanDisk’s upcoming storage products on your radar. Especially if the base Xbox Ally’s 512 GB or Xbox Ally X’s 1TB is a little too slim to your taste.
The brand has just announced that it will bring some new products to marketed specifically to the upcoming PC handhelds “in the coming months.” The first is the Sandisk MicroSD card for ROG Ally (X), the second is WD Black SN7100X NVME SSD for ROG Xbox Ally (X) and PC.
Let’s start with the MicroSD card. It comes in three variants offering 512 GB, 1 TB and 2TB capabilities. These will run you $ 69.99 / £ 49.99, $ 149.99 / £ 104.99 and $ 299.99 / £ 209.99.
NVME SSD can meanwhile be used with both Allied handheld as well as PC. There are two models here that offer 2TB and 4TB capabilities for $ 159.99 / £ 123.99 and $ 279.99 / £ 239.99.
As mentioned, the MicroSD card is specifically designed for Xbox Ally handhelds, which SanDisk says they support “full Xbox integration.”
You can expect up to 200 MB/s reading speeds here, as well as a lifetime limited warranty if errors occur.
SN7100X boasts up to 7,250 MB/s reading speeds and 6,900 MB/s writing speeds. You also get a one-month test with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate here, even if you have to be a first time subscriber to make use of it.
I was lukewarm on the upcoming handhelds -scheduled for launch on October 16, 2025 -in my Asus ROG Xbox Ally Impressions -Piece from Gamescom 2025. While I definitely see the appeal to a steam tire -like -like device with full Xbox -o -Ecosystem integration, inconsistent performance and a frustrating non -reacting dashboard that wants more.
