I have a 1tb SSD in my OG Steam Deck that I want to clone to my 1tb OLED. Ideally without having to disassemble either unit. Is that possible?

At worst I can just physically swap the drives but I’d prefer not to take apart my new toy unless I need to. (I stripped one of the tiny backplate screws when disassembling one of my friend’s decks and the four hours I spent getting it out left me with some mild trauma lol)

    Yes you can clone it. Get clonezilla and make sure your deck is updated to the latest version. That will allow you to swap the drive. Also be warned that you will need Torx screws to get into the OLED Deck

    I’m curious, will doing this (or outright swapping the two drives) change the boot icon? Would hate to lose the red deck symbol upon bolt up… Unless that part of the boot is the bios?
