Benchmarked on the Steam Deck, the SanDisk Ultra line's read/write is 90/30 MB/s. This was tested with the 256GB variant, but it's safe to expect similar performance from the 1.5TB variant. In other words, this card does not fully saturate the Steam Deck's benchmarked transfer bandwidth of ~90 MB/s for both read/write.

You'll be fine if you're not transferring or downloading games often, or if your internet isn't much faster than 240 Mbps (30 MB/s). And since there aren't many 1.5TB cards on the market, the sheer size on this one might be worth the sacrifice in write speeds.

But if you DO transfer games often, have faster than 240 Mbps internet, plan to use Ethernet to use Networked Transfer with your PC, or wanna try dual-booting Windows on this thing, you maaaaaay wanna consider waiting for a sale on a better card—like the PNY PRO Elite, SanDisk Extreme, or Samsung Evo, which are among the best-performing microSD cards for the Steam Deck.

As for cost efficiency per gigabyte: The last sale I saw for a 1TB of the above models is $68 for the PNY PRO Elite. That one came out to $0.068/GB. This one comes in at $0.066/GB. They're roughly equivalent in terms of capacity. So you have to decide if you're okay paying what is effectively the same price for a bigger but slower card.

1.5TB on a microSD card? Wow I'm out of touch. I was looking for more laptop storage without replacing the internal drive and I guess this would be an option.
Why? Some of the games are 30gb+ even I was shocked when it said it was out of space. Witcher is 40gb!

The irony that this will be used in a Switch is palpable.

Is the deal dead? The link took me to a 16gb card and I've searched on the Western Digital site, the 1.5tb is nowhere to be found. Frown
I still see 1.5TB as an option in the drop down selection, hopefully it's still available for everyone

Because it comes with a free Nintendo licensed SD card and will most likely be used to pirate games. Nintendo is actively having emulators taken down among other anti piracy nonsense.
Or, it will hold games purchased via Nintendo Online, instead of physical game cartridges.
