SDUC supports up to one hundred and twenty eight Terabytes O.o
Who in the world requires so much Storage on a tiny SD card?!
Steamdeck game library
I don’t get it
When people disassemble their steam deck for the first time, they often forget to pull out their expensive micro sd, and it gets cracked by Steam deck body in half
Oof. Thank you for explaining.
Deck gang rise up
That's a lot of games/applications then, is the card reader fast enough though?
I use mine exclusively for emulation and ROMs, entire libraries of every single game released for older systems. The SD card I have for that runs them fine without issue. Potentially with newer/bigger games you might come across issues, that I haven’t really done at all.
I’ve been using a 1tb sd card with mine and my steam library. Not any noticeable difference in speed between the internal ssd and micro sd.
How many different game are you trying to play at a time?
Luckily there is a m.2 slot in the deck 😉
And in general as well, does it make more sense to use m.2 Type-2230 SSD instead of SD cards, these days. Way faster and way more robust.
As someone who did swap theor steam deck's M.2, I really wish it were a 2280 instead since those drives can hold much more. The largest 2230 I could find was only 2 TB.
Not really super feasible for the average user to crack apart the plastic casing and reformat the new m.2 slot (since there is only one) with a new SteamOS partition.
I think you’ll find 95% of all steam deck users will prefer popping in a microsd than ripping apart their deck and formatting/transferring in a new internal drive.
“I’ve said some stupid things and some wrong things, but not that." -- an actual Bill Gates quote referring to the 640k quote that won't die.
But yes, it was probably satirically ascribed to him because of MS-DOS not having the capability to deal with any more than that amount of RAM for a lot longer than it probably should have.
The "temporary" solution of requiring an extra driver to be able to do so (EMM386.SYS or similar) remained in place right up until DOS-based Windows was allowed to die.
(The underlying reason was almost certainly ancient IBM PC memory-mapped IO standards, so maybe we could ascribe the original quote an engineer working there some time around 1980.)
I want all my music on my phone, not just a pithy 80,000 songs.
As a bandcamp flac lover, I concur. I've spent so much supporting small artists it's actually insane. I make two copies after I download an album: one to giant memory stick which I can plug into entertainment systems and such, one to the microsd in my phone. I currently have 1TB microsd in my phone for this reason, but I can see it possibly running out one day :D

Look, some people may have a porn collection that they need to backup and store "about their person" and this is the ideal way to do that.
Don't be kink shaming.
By 'some people', you mean 'all of us'. :)
People who want a Raspberry Pi NAS without having to buy a hat?
I wish I could trust SD cards enough to use one on my Pi NAS… I just snagged a 5TB* external HDD.
Five... gigs?
Oooo thank you. Brain broken today. Five gigs is the average movie size hahaha
Pathetic.
Isn't it preferable to have a RAID configuration for your NAS? Or do you then buy multiples of those and requiring again a hat or external card readers.
Certainly, but only if you're proactive about backups. If you're lazy, well...
We say that about every tech capacity. No way anyone could ever use more than 1.44mb, oh man 2mb ram will be all I ever need etc.
using less space for your storage is always better
