I have all my games on 1 tb sd card and just switched it. Only problem was when I tried to move some internal files, what I downloaded manually.
I have RDR2 game bought via Rockstar launcher (never do it) and downloaded it to the main drive. I didn’t want to use my computer for file transfer, so i decided just to remove this on LCD and download it again on OLED.
All other data just stored on SD card
No dead skin, but strange materials. You can test these sticks, just take toothpick and slightly touch stick edges, you instantly will see white “scratches”
Nothing. I used rubber extra extenders for them and just take off them. Material surface always becomes white on the edges, sometimes from a little scratch. But usually it disappears after a little time.
Looks like bad material choice from valve
p.s. My location is Vancouver Canada. Bought it November 16, arrived November 23
