Cloning the Steam Deck's SSD is a bit like tech wizardry, but fear not! First, you'll need a cloning tool - I personally recommend something like Clonezilla or Macrium Reflect for this. You'll also need an external SSD enclosure that matches your Steam Deck's SSD type (most likely M.2). Step 1: Connect your SSD to the enclosure and then to another computer. Step 2: Use the cloning software to clone the Steam Deck's SSD to the new one. Remember to check the cloning software's guidelines to avoid any magical mishaps. Once the cloning process is done, replace the old SSD with the new one in your Steam Deck. Voila, you're all set!

Just buy a bigger microSD card. Way easier and no need to open up your Steam Deck.

Did it myself last weekend, not as hard as it sounds. Make sure to use a reliable SSD and take your time with the cloning software. The key is to ensure the new SSD is properly formatted and recognized before starting the cloning process. Worked like a charm!
