I have a 512GB deck and I was thinking of getting a 1TB microSD card to store and launch my games from. Would it be wiser to get a 1TB SSD instead?

    I’m terrified to mess up my deck, so I’ve opted for just the sd card. No regrets. As others have mentioned, if a game works better on an ssd, just install that one on there and the rest on the SD card.

      I just upgraded my internal SSD a few days ago. Super easy. My wife saw how easy it is and at first she was hesitant but now she also ordered her own 1tb SSD. But I’ve also taken apart a few laptops and Switch’s so I was confident… If the Deck broke, oh no I need to buy an OLED one 😅

      it’s not as easy as people make it out to be, i can open and repair iphones perfectly fine, yet i open my steam deck once and i have backlight bleed and rough uneven edges
