As the title says, I’m wondering if there is a way through console commands to simply connect two decks together via USB c cable and clone one to another. I know I could remove the ssd from the oled and clone to it via ssd dock connected to the lcd deck via USB c. But, I was hoping to avoid cracking into the new deck and having to buy additional hardware.

    You would need a m.2 to usb C adapter and need to open the new steam deck

    If you have a storage device larger than the deck M.2 drive you want to clone (like a portable hard drive), you can download a live USB Linux image, write it onto a USB stick, then boot the original deck with it. Once inside Linux you can copy the entire original device onto your secondary storage. Then repeat the same but in reverse on the target deck.
