You guys need to try out streaming from PC and/or PS5 to Steam Deck. Technically everything runs on the SD in this scenario. I'm playing FF7 Rebirth on the SD via my PS5 right now, and it is glorious. Helldivers 2 via the gaming rig is also pretty sweet.
Steam's built in Remote Play and Chiaki4Deck are the best!
My Steam Deck is my gaming PC/console. I couldn't justify or afford a 2nd one.
I’ve been streaming Helldivers 2 to the Steam Deck too. It’s amazing as long as you have a good router.
I would, but I had my main game hard drive fail on my PC and haven't replaced it yet for some reason. So I'm left with 1.5 TB of game storage on the deck, and only 30GB of game storage on my PC, leaving it mostly as a work only device.
One of these days I'll actually get around to buying a new drive for it, but as it is the deck runs just about everything I want to play.
Check out the company Silicon Power. If you don't need anything fancy storage has gotten laughably cheap. I impulse bought more because I couldn't install a game and was so surprised by the price.
