The only thing you have to be careful with is that it a M.2 2230. Finding a M.2 2230 Pcie 3x4 lanes is actually not easy. Quick google only thing I found at 512GB was a SanDisk PC SN520 512GB m.2 2230 which was pcie 3x2 and $200. if the most expensive model 3x4 the extra $50 might not be so horrible and not having to deal with doing the replacement.
I did not look too hard so might be other options out there but 2230 is defiantly way way rarer then the typical 2280 people buy.
Then again we don't know the specs of what it comes with. It possible they both PCIE 3X2 or maybe the 256gb is and the 512GB is PCIE 3x4 or maybe the slot it self limited to PICE 3X2 so it don't really matter.
unfortunately I think we going to have to wait awhile till they give out dev units and get some good reviews before we know.

Yea, we know somethings but it's hard to tell what the slot supports in the base model. I would imagine the slot in the base model has support for PCIE 3x4 as everything else is the same between the 3. And yea, those ones are certainly pricer than your average SSDs.

Cool, Then the question is can you find a 512GB M.2 2230 PCIE 3x4 for much less then $250? I guess if a lot of steam deck sell a market will pop up for them so someone will come in to offer them but at least right now not so sure that something you can just go buy easily.
