It's definitely doable to upgrade the Steam Deck's SSD, but you gotta be careful not to void the warranty. Before diving in, check if your Steam Deck model uses an M.2 2230 SSD. If it does, you'll need a compatible replacement SSD. Make sure to ground yourself to avoid static damage, open up the back carefully, locate the SSD, and then swap it with the new one. Oh, and keep track of those screws!

Absolutely upgradeable, but let's keep it real - it's not for everyone. If you're not tech-savvy or the thought of opening up your precious device gives you the chills, consider external storage options or seeking professional help. Remember, messing it up could spell disaster for your warranty (or your Deck).
