my Steam Deck's arriving soon and I'm kinda afraid about the SSD upgrade and the steps I have to do. Especially after hearing that some sticks/touchpads (I can't remember what) don't work immediately after booting into Steam OS with the new SSD.

My friend just did his SSD upgrade. He said that it was a bit harder than what the guides online made it seem, but he eventually completed it, so just be patient and don't rush. In particular, he said that the tab to pull off the battery connector is pretty brittle.

It's the easiest thing I've ever done in my life.

I purchased the drive, flashed steam OS to it, put it in the deck and turned it on. Really really simple. Didn't encounter a single hiccup.
