What’s up with the 2 SSDs?

What's wrong with it?

Not OP but asking because I wanted to buy 2 as well for my new build, 1 for OS 1 for games.

It's not a wrong thing to do, but why waste your precious M.2 slots? Most normal boards have 2-3 M.2 slots. Having a spare of them would be great to easily expand storage without having to muck around with a 2.5" SATA drive

Oh I see, the mobo I chose has 4, so not a problem in my case, but yeah I get you point, thanks!

Fair enough but why 2 models? Why no simply buy 2 of the cheap one, it's not like it's gonna make a difference anyway (as a reminder, the steam deck can load games from an SD cart fast)

That's a good point, but I'm not buying the same as OP, I'm getting 2 of exactly the same, by your comment I thought it was wrong to have 2 m2, but I get now I probably just misunderstood what you meant.
