- Example for a good SD Card
- With the above recommended specifications most games should work fine:
- Some recent AAA games started requiring SSDs, read system requirements
- Using the internal drive instead (NVMe, not 64GB EMMC) will most likely only reduce loading times by a few seconds in big games
SSD Upgrade / Swap
- Upgrading from 64GB EMMC drive should be a noticeable speed bump in loading times
Simple Method
- The SSD should be single sided, NVMe M.2 2230
- Lower power consumption is better
- More battery life
- Less heat
- Less likely to cause issues with other components
Advanced Method
- 2230 to 2280 NVMe adapter
- This makes even higher storage solutions possible (8TB+)
- More heat generated & more power usage (probably)
