If say I bought the cheapest variant, could the same type of SSD upgrades fit in it, just as they would the mid and higher tier steamdecks?

SanDisk 1TB Extreme microSDXC UHS-I. I play a lot of Diablo IV and Forza Horizon 5 and the loading screens are much faster.

My observation is that the SD card tops out around 30mb/s.

That's a 1TB.

Was the 2TB in your earlier comment a typo?

[–] codus@leby.dev 1 points 2 years ago

No typo. I had my games on a 1TB microSD card and now they are on a 2TB SSD.

Thanks for the tip!
