"The Steam Deck presents an enticing option for fans of portable PC gaming, but
the console does have room for improvement. One of the system's major
weaknesses lies in its storage capacity, with the high-end model sporting a
maximum of 512 GB on its NVMe unit. Modern games often exceed the 100-200GB
range, and storage manufacturers now offer larger NVMe M.2 2230 units as
alternatives to upgrade the Steam Deck's integrated drive.
Modders at
StorageReview have taken a different approach by attempting to
connect the portable console to an exceptionally spacious enterprise SSD. This
storage-focused website aimed to provide more room for the Steam Deck's Shader
Pre-Caching system, a feature designed to reduce stuttering and other issues in
demanding 3D games that require shader compilation to run smoothly.
Shader pre-caching does require a certain amount of download time and can
consume a substantial portion of storage space, but a 61.44 TB SSD would
undoubtedly resolve the issue permanently."
The power of Linux: the same kernel runs on handheld devices and on large
enterprise servers, so if you want to add an enterprise storage device to your
handheld it works just fine.
