About this Item:
  • Portability meets power. We partnered with AMD to create Steam Deck's custom APU, optimized for handheld gaming. It is a Zen 2 + RDNA 2 powerhouse, delivering more than enough performance to run the latest AAA games in a very efficient power envelope.
  • Your Steam Library, anywhere. Once you've logged into Steam Deck, your entire Steam Library shows up, just like any other PC. You'll also see the compatibility rating of each game, indicating the kind of experience you can expect when playing. You can dynamically filter any view in your library by compatibility rating if you're looking for specific sorts of experiences.
  • Control with comfort. The Steam Deck was built for extended play sessions—whether you're using thumbsticks or trackpads—with full-size controls positioned perfectly within your reach. The rear of the device is sculpted to comfortably fit a wide range of hand sizes.

As to why they're not widely available (2230) is that there's not many applications for them. Most devices can take 2242 or 2280 which don't need to crowd the electronics and can have better heat dissipation. Basically just a small market for them...it used to be much smaller before the Steam Deck came out!

Breaking my hairs on whether I need a 1tb or 2tb SSD.. I plan on installing 30+ games including AAA titles and I am not planning to remove or delete any games. Will 1 tb not be enough eventually? I might install emulators or even windows

I can get a 1 tb for $80 shipped or 2 tb for $173 shipped from Ali). Should I splurge the extra $93 for a 2tb? (I noticed microSD cards can get expensive too so I'm not planning to buy any - I'd rather put that cash into a the SSD at the beginning)

Yes, it should be legit. AliExpress is a site that ships from different China businesses/stores/suppliers.

You can search for drives on AliExpress to see what's cheapest. Samsung PM991a, WD SN740, or WD SN530.

I got a 1TB Samsung drive for $69. From my understanding, the steam deck is gen 3 only anyways, so just get whichever drive is cheapest in the size you'd like.

They have sizes up to 2TB.
Thanks, it looks like Aliexpress is the way, any other suggestions would be appreciated, I am leaning towards this and a 256GB microSD unless a 512GB goes on sale here on SD...

Fedex or UPS since hire Third Party Drivers stole steam decks last year because Steam was using factory packaging that says Steam Deck. Hopefully they updated the packaging.

I wouldn't buy any SSD from Ali it could be fake drive with fake firmware showing 1-2TB but only 120GB model.

You also need USB C Flash drive to recover the Steam OS

Apparently SDers are doing it, since HD are sourced from China, just look for a seller and go to reviews and confirm that user reviews states it is 1TB, thats what I would do

Any Steam Deck accessories that make it better, perhaps grips for the back? Better wiring? Housing? Suggestions?

You think getting one of those case with grips, will make it more economic?
