Grab yourself a 256GB Steam Deck for 64GB money with only a teensy bit of tinkering required

pcgamer.com:

Valve Steam Deck | 64GB | $399$359.10 at Steam (save $39.90) The cheapest Steam Deck model available just got cheaper. That's a key discount, too, as you can spend just a little over $40 on a 256GB Steam Deck-compatible SSD and turn this machine into the more expensive middle-tier model for next to nothing.

Sabrent Rocket 2230 NVMe SSD | 256GB | PCIe 4.0 | Steam Deck-compatible | $44.99 at Amazon Spend your savings on this 256GB SSD from Sabrent, upgrade your Deck, and, voila, you'll have saved yourself a fair bit of cash. Happy handheld gaming.

With this nearly $40 discount, you save almost the entire cost of a Steam Deck-compatible 256GB NVMe SSD, which you can fit yourself at home. Meaning you get the 256GB model for the basically the price of a 64GB model, only a small amount of tinkering required.

Or to put it another way, that's a $124.91 discount over the MSRP of the actual 256GB Steam Deck for the same spec, minus the exclusive Steam Community profile bundle. But I
