Comment on External storage on Steam OS is a problem
Dariusmiles2123@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoI know and that’s what’s frustrating.
I’d just want to be able to redirect the Deck towards it or copy it on another hard drive to see if the problem is hardware related.

Part of the issue is that Linux does not auto-mount connected drives unless specifically configured to. So every time you boot your Steam Deck, the drive is detected but not mounted.
Normally, you do this via the fstab file. I’ll admit I’m not sure how well that works with an external drive.
