These include the Steam Deck's unique form-factor that let me stay on the screen for extended periods and finish my games till their actual end. Furthermore, the Deck's PC architecture opened the door to emulation that helped me enjoy my childhood favorites in 2024. Clearing off dozens of games from my Steam library that would have taken months on my actual PC, I can see why the Steam Deck helped me play more games.

If you want to start cloning your old SSD on Steam Deck to the new one, then you'll require a 2230 SSD, its enclousure and some terminal knowledge. Begin by heading into Steam Deck's desktop mode and set a sudo password. Once done, type in "sudo lsblk." This will provide you with the SSD name for the drive you want to clone. Plug in the enclosure with the new SSD, and run the corresponding command "sudo dd if=/dev/xxxx of=/dev/sda oflag=sync bs=128M status=progress." replace the xxxx with the SSD name we previously procured to clone the existing SSD into the new one.
