Currently the M. 2230 2TB SSDs are $50 off at bestbuy, they’re $169.99 - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/wd-black-sn770m-2tb-internal-ssd-pcie-gen-4-x4-m-2-2230-for-rog-ally-and-steam-deck/6551144.p?skuId=6551144
And the 4tb Samsung Pro 990 is the cheapest I’ve seen at $250 - https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/990-pro-pcie-4-0-nvme-ssd-4tb-mz-v9p4t0b-am/
These are the best drives and prices I’ve seen if you want the most storage for your 16" when it comes in!
Yep, if you decided against the GPU, you have two more M2 slots in the shell. I worry they won’t be available in future expansion options (like a battery for example) though; so I’m not planning on counting on them.
