So I recently purchased a 1TB micro SD card. I tried formatting it on the Steam deck and it gives me the error that it failed validation. So I thought it might be one of those “fake” cards since I got it on Amazon. I took it out and plugged it into my desktop pc and it shows 999gb of available space but when I look at it on the Steam deck it says it is completely full. Is this just a scam card or am I doing something wrong? I tried formatting on my PC and it said it completed but again it shows completely full when I put it in the Steam deck… Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Go into system settings and try formatting it.
You get what you pay for bud… If you’re going to spend money on a mini-gaming Linux based PC, don’t cheap out on the accessories you get for it either. Buy reputable brand named items next time perhaps. Samsung or San Disk.
