my Steam Deck’s arriving soon and I’m kinda afraid about the SSD upgrade and the steps I have to do. Especially after hearing that some sticks/touchpads (I can’t remember what) don’t work immediately after booting into Steam OS with the new SSD.

    Make sure you have the right size screw drivers. You can easily strip those screws. Also buy a cheap thin guitar pick which you can use to click the shell open after you’ve unscrewed it.

    You can just clone the existing OS on the old SSD to an image onto the sd-card and then clone it back to the new SSD. So the issue of the touchpads will never come up, since it is exactly the same installation as before.
