Have you upgraded your internal storage? How did it go? Did you reinstall steamOS from scratch or clone the original M.2/eMMC?

Thought about it but it was honestly pretty easy to throw a 512gb sd card in and cheaper. Plus most if not all of the stuff on the deck is saved in the cloud not a big deal if it fails.

Yeah most games that work on the deck will be fine coming from a modern microsd card. Even Skyrim really would be fine. I've read reports that upgrading to some drives is causing too much heat, and tbh as much as I love tinkering - deck is perfectly made IMO. I'll just swap out cards, even then I haven't really needed to.
