This is a step by step beginner's guide on how to upgrade your Steam Deck's SSD.
Everything you need to know on how to upgrade Steam Deck storage. I'll show you how to safely remove your old eMMC drive and install a new NVME SSD for improved performance and storage capacity.
In this video, I'm going to teach you everything you need to know about upgrading your Steam Deck SSD, including cloning your old SSD, installing the new SSD and, if needed, reimaging SteamOS!
I'll be upgrading my 64GB Steam Deck's eMMC 2230 SSD to a 2TB NVME WD SN740, and will share all the tips, tricks and issues I ran into along the way. Upgrading your Steam Deck's SSD is a simple process that can make a big difference in your gaming experience.
This guide will walk you through every step of the upgrade process, from cloning your old SSD to installation and reimaging your new SSD, whether it be 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, 2TB or even larger. By the end of this guide, you'll be up and running with the best Steam Deck gaming experience possible!
