Hi all,

With the announcement of the OLED, I want to replace my existing deck.

Is there an easy way to convert all my mods/adjustments, etc. to the new one? If my emulators and roms are stored on an SD card, will the transfer be as simple as removing it from one deck and placing it into another?

Thanks!

    I need to know. Has anyone just moved their SSD from one Deck to another, or do you have to install everything again?

      I would recommend neither. Just copy over USB or network the home folder, if you left the OS partition as read only than all the steam stuff should transfer easily. Non-steam programs like lutris or ProtonGE or emulators might need to be reinstalled but their settings should all transfer. The new deck is fine with opening & closing but the LCD decks never go back together (big improvement in how they are screwed together)
