So relatively new deck owner.

Got a deal on a regular Deck for pretty cheap. I didn’t opt for the 1TB SSD or anything like that.

I know that it’s a pretty easy hardware replacement for the SSD or the SD card.

I just have a couple questions:

  1. Does the cloning process for the SSD require specialized tools?
  2. do you notice a huge performance improvement on SSD compared to SD card?

I run the 1tb SSD, a 1tb microsd and a 2tb USB-C SSD.

The internal SSD is all the normal Steam Deck stuff, the microsd is all emulation, and the external 2tb is a Windows 11 boot drive.
