Thank you sooooo much!!!! I was so scared to upgrade mine but your video made it so much easier for me.

Thank you. This was my first time doing any tinkering on my own and you really helped me nail it down in one go! Much appreciated

You can put the steam deck in battery storage mode just to be extra safe also. It will not turn back on unless you plug the charger in

Thanks for watching. Glad it Helped

I spent so long trying to get it to boot using the docking station but it wouldn't. You're sdcard tip saved me. Worked first time with sdcard. Thanks!

That Wingstop though, Marc knows what's up lol

Thank you for explaining how to do this.👍🙌🙌🙌🙌

Upgrading mine also, from 64GB to 2TB nvme ssd.

looked a bit in the comments, didn't see anything mentioning the difference between the two SSDs. The 64gb is known as an m.2 sata, and the 512gb is a NVMe, which also sits in the same m.2 slot. The m.2 sata had its own port in the past (hence the weird shape), but can be used in a modern m.2 slot. Thanks for the video, Would have missed the thing for a bit thanks to the wrap around the drive lol.

Thx I never thought about flashing SDcard instead of usb key. It seems to be easier like that. However I might wait to pick up 1 or 2tb ssd to upgrade my 64gb as lot of newer games often reaching +100go.

Nice tutorial. 👍🏽 I’m finally upgrading as well actually (Cosair 1TB 99$) but unfortunately I’ve stripped the FoilCover screw, now it’s idle in the case till I get some help elsewhere. There’s methods to extract it but..I’m worried of further messing it up. 15:49 *lol* 🍗

I need to do this because some of these games sizes and shaders take up way too much space even with Cryoutilities installed.

If me I won't be doing this.. Scary if spoil how cannot on back how when you spend so much money on steam deck and suddenly make it spoil just to upgrade the SSD card not worth it.. I am happy but you did it... BTW Thank you for teaching us 😊😊

The look of the ssd is different because 64GB is eMMC which is SATA not nvme and the new one 512GB is nvme. SATA is much slower then Nvme but still much faster then microSD or HDD.

Great there on sale shame there always sold out tho here in thr UK

What happens if you tear the screw cover?

You really just have to tap - and power until you hear the sound and release settings are bugged for some reason on reimage got a 2tb 2230 in mine replaced the SSD from a 512 to a 2tb with a 1tb mSD

think im gonna upgrade to 2tb plus add a 1tb ssd.. i have 5,000 games in my steam library so it should be worth it.

Marc curious why you didn't go higher than 512? Money im sure isn't an issue. I would think if you were to go thru the process, you would absolutely upgrade to a 1tb at minimum. Just confused.

Steam deck pro needed

Please i need help... my r1 button was not pressing well so i opened my steam deck and cleaned it.. i mistakenly removed the ssd without unplugging the battery..... so after my steam deck came on and i noticed that my mouse and buttons are not working except volume and power buttons.. i only have window 11 on it. I have reimage to steam os and updated it but yet my buttons are not working except touch... please i need help asap. Thanks

Do i need to download the steam deck recovery in pc or i can just doit in an android and insert flash drive

Does doing this brick the SD you use for flashing? I was going to use it to store retro games but none of my devices will recognize it anymore

Im just guessing now (since I havent tested it with steam deck) , but I had the same problem with an sd-card that I could not use it, but found out that if I used a low-level partition formating software, I could remove the partitions. and add new ones, and then format the card.

Quick question. Let’s say your still wanting to use a 512gb SD even with your 1TB SSD upgrade. Is that the micro sd you use to flash or keep them separate? Just curious. I’m waiting on my steam decks now.

a little late but you can absolutely use the same sd card that you used to flash, after you already did the flashing there's no need to keep the sd card like that so you can just go back to use it normally

Got mine was so post to come in today and it never did 😒

is it okay if it's not 25 percent or Lower?

Quick question... why did you choose "remake Steam Deck" and not "reinstall steam os"?

LOL , is far cry 6 171 gb ?

$399 for the Deck + Case and a 2TB M.2 SSD ($200) Why even bother selling the deck for more than $600 with merely a quarter of storage space? That's what I don't get Or during sales, you can save a lot of money and buy the $399 SD with a 1TB SSD for another $90 or maybe less Honestly, the other options are completely pointless. You're basically just paying hundreds of $$$ more for exclusive profile stuff and an anti-glare screen. Would that anti-glare screen be worth that extra $200+?

Thumbs down, put it in battery storage mode or you risk the deck into thinking you have no charge on your battery and refuse to boot. Happened to me because i followed another video that also failed to give proper instruction

Take some time before you do your videos if your to lazy to take 2 seconds to learn what the tools are called or to even know what a m.2 nvme or a sata drive is… can’t have much trust if you can’t make a real effort.

I’ve seen way better tutorials on this. I would highly suggest someone else’s tutorial.
