Just got a 64gb steam deck and replaced the SSD with a 1tb sabrent Rocket and it’s not showing up as an available drive. I reinstalled the old drive and it works fine. I have no other way of testing the drive. Most likely DOA?

      I don’t own a Steamdeck myself but since it’s Arch Linux based there should be a partitioning tool like GParted built in.

          Oh! true, completely slipped my mind. Install it in another PC or use an M.2 enclosure with USB C to partition it and clone the original.

        NM thought I needed to see the drive in the boot loader but just needed to run steam recovery. Thanks for your help.
