I am considering the new OLED deck, but one thing that will be a huge hassle is if I have to reiinstall the Steam library. Currently, I have my steam library only installed on SD cards (the internal drive is used for the OS, utilities and shaders, etc…). So when I want to play a game I drop in the appropraite SD card like a Nintendo Switch and the Deck detects the games automatically because the install path is saved to some configuration file.

However, I am wondering if I were to upgrade to the Switch OLED, is there anyway to transfer over the installation files so that I can continue to just drop in SD cards with the games? I know that it is possible to link games to a different install folder in the new OLED, but even that will take a very long time as I have to go through each game on each SD card and I believe Steam will also go and verify each and every game. I am hoping there is a way to fool the new OLED just continuing to run as if all the games are installed on the SD cards (beacuse they are)?
