minus-squarelobut@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-24 months agoFirst thing I did when I bought mine was to open up my Steam Deck and put in a new hard drive. Most difficult thing was some of the screws felt over-tightened. That was about it to be honest. I also heard the battery glue is really strong so I’m not looking forward to that in the future for me.
