Steam games. I want to have all my 50-100 GB games available without having to decide what to uninstall.

Currently I have two 512gb SD cards for my Steam Deck.

If it craps out, it's okay.

We need a better storage solution than SD cards…

Doesn’t the steam deck have an upgradeable nvme drive? That would be a much better solution.

~~80mm~~ 30mm m.2 drives are to much of a niche

[–] B0rax@feddit.de 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I think you mean 30mm (that’s what the steam deck uses, 80mm is the standard).

At about $80 per TB, it is more expensive than the 80mm ones, yes. But still comparable to SD cards an much faster and more reliable.

Yeah I meant the stubby smaller size.
I always forget the sizes of the M.2 :D
