Time for an SSD upgrade on #SteamDeck , from 512GB to 2TB.

I'll clone the drive using #clonezilla . Let's see how it'll go.

So far so good :steamdeck: #fingerscrossed only my photo taking skills suck 😆

Currently this setup is running from a #ugreen branded #usb3 PD pass-through hub, which I got for #macbook back then, and a nvme enclosure for the new ssd. I'm also using #ventoy + #clonezilla as a disk cloning OS. ıt benefits from #partclone .

People have been running the #dd command directly through #SteamDeck #steamOS desktop mode while it's running, which I'd rather not.

Cloning complete. Kudos to #valve developers, the partition table is set beautifully and I'll hopefully be able to resize without issues, and maybe even it'll do automatically.

Done 🎉Now my #SteamDeck :steamdeck: is is 2TBs. Works lovely so far! I only need to sync the clock using #ntp tools to sync etc, but it wouldn't be a huge issue anyways.

@arda Good to know. For now I'm taking the cheaper and less effort way out with microSD cards. But I certainly do see an SSD upgrade here in the (distant) future.
