Got a Steam Deck on the way, anything I should know before I dive in when it arrives?

If you're swapping out the SSD make sure to remove the SD card first.

    Also, you don't necessarly need to Reflash the Image with a new SSD (but still the safer option).
    I just made an image with dd and saved it on a usb Drive.
    Restored the image on the new SSD, while it was plugged onto my main pc, and just swapped the SSD on the deck.

    I was suprised the deck automatically expanded the main partition to fill up the entire space.
