There’s another slot for storage and you might be able to replace the primary drive, like I did with my Legion Go. You should be able to do 4 TB, even more if there’s a SD card slot.
Comment on Playnix: Boutique Linux PC released with better gaming performance than Valve Steam Machine
SpaceMan9000@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoDo feel like 512GB isn’t a lot these days. Especially with bigger libraries.

Not for today’s sad prices. Holy moley.

Yeah, but you gotta open it up. Valves SD card design that allows you to go from handheld to console is pretty damn nice and convenient.

My minimum for a games drive is 1TB.
I don’t have a Gbit in download speeds. So I don’r want to download games every 5 days just so I can play something else.

Probably not a solution for everyone but the steam deck really got me on SD Cards. An external reader would still suck, but I love how cheap you can find 512gb - 1tb sd cards. Very easy to travel with as well.

Do you run them from the SD cards or just install them onto the main machine from there?
Sorry for the Starter questions but ive been out of the non-console game for about 20 years.

For my deck specifically i keep em all on the SD Card, somehow valve made it so that I personally don’t see a difference between nvme and sdcard.
For my pc yes, I just use it to transfer to my gaming ssd/nvme storage, but thats primarily because my internet is slowerthan the transfer rates.
I probably wouldn’t try running helldivers on my pc through an external card for instance, but it would work perfectly on my deck in that form.

You can run them off SD cards. There’s a hit to loading speeds, but it’s not that mucn
