This 2TB SSD for Steam Deck is a great deal for Prime members at $123

Whether you have a Steam Deck handheld, or an Asus ROG Ele (the older, non-Xbox version), you may want to consider upgrading its internal storage. I’m not talking about microSD cards, which are convenient, but slow. I am talking about M.2 2230 sized SSDs which are quite fast in reading and writing data. If so, Prime members can head over to Amazon to get it Crucial’s P310 2TB SSD While it is $123.49. This is only $2 more than the lowest price ever. A 1TB SSD in this form factor typically costs around $80 to $100 depending on the brand, so doubling the storage is a great value. Despite being available for months at around $150, it recently sold out at its original price of $239.99.

The process for upgrading your handheld’s SSD varies depending on the model, and if you don’t know, it involves opening up your handheld. So the process poses some challenges and inherent risks of damaging its internal parts if you are not patient. If I were doing this procedure myself, I would consult iFixit’s guides. Even equipped with the best guides, it’s possible that you may not have the right tools to get the job done. If that’s the case, picking up iFixit’s basic 64-bit set for $39.99 should be a good companion for this and other tech tinkering tasks.
