    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

    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.

    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.

  • @bng3450
    @bng3450 Год назад +3

    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.

  • @Yinzzy656
    @Yinzzy656 Год назад +6

    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.

    • @Marcthegeek
      @Marcthegeek  Год назад +11

      Honestly Money was the issue. I've been spending too much $ lately. And I was about to buy the 512GB version cause of the sale. But decided to just spend less than $60, to save that extra money. thanks for watching.

    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.

  • @0hmyshoes
    @0hmyshoes Год назад

    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.

    • @charlymoon741
      @charlymoon741 Год назад

      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

      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.

    $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+?
