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?

    A lot of people here saying to upgrade the SSD but I don’t know. I got a shit ton more storage for the same price by going with SD cards, and I’m able to easily play games like Helldivers, GTA, big giant games that supposedly “Need” an ssd and I’ve not noticed any difference at all.

      The only games I would feel like I’d want to have better performance from an SD card are basically just anything that runs on Unreal 5.

      I was having issues with TW3 (mainly when it was raining), but I have just found out I need to actually go back to some beta version of the game instead.
