00:00Hi, this is a video about opening up a Steam Deck to replace one or more of the components

00:07inside it.

00:08Specifically, we're going to cover the thumbsticks and the SSD.

00:12In one way, this is a how-to video, but in another way, it's a why you really shouldn't

00:16do this video.

00:17That's because even though it's your PC, or it will be once you've received your Steam

00:21Deck, and you have every right to open it up and do what you want, we at Valve really

00:26don't recommend that you ever open it up.

00:28The Steam Deck is a very tightly designed system, and the parts are chosen carefully

00:32for this product with its specific construction, so they aren't really designed to be user-swappable.

00:39Opening up and replacing parts might mess things up, like profoundly.

00:43For example, if you damaged the battery, the whole thing could catch fire later, which

00:46would be bad.

00:48So be forewarned, and leave this kind of thing to professionals, unless you really feel like

00:53taking big risks with your property and with your life, which could end if you do this

00:57wrong. Just saying. Also, the warranty doesn't cover any damage that you do.

01:03However, having said all that, we also wanted to make this video to simply show you what's

01:07inside the Steam Deck. Taking things apart and putting them back together is cool, especially

01:12powerful handheld gaming computers.

01:15Please note, the screws that secure the housing are what's called self-tapping screws and they're

01:20embedded in plastic bosses. They can be removed and reinstalled, but it's much easier to strip

01:26or over-torque screws of this type, compared to standard ones. So be aware that they're very

01:30sensitive and either the screws or the housing can be damaged.

01:34A torque wrench does help prevent damage. Opening the case immediately weakens it and makes the

01:41product less drop resistant. There's no way to avoid this. So just know that the structural

01:46integrity of your deck will be lessened somewhat by doing any of this.

01:52Static electricity can easily break your Steam Deck permanently. Basically, if a spark jumps from you

01:58to one of the integrated circuits on the board, it'll probably fry some of the parts forever.

02:02If you're unfamiliar with preventing electrostatic discharge,

02:06you should probably stop doing this and turn it over to a pro.

02:10First, remove these four screws. Then these four. Note that they're different sizes,

02:17so start keeping your screws organized to help you when it comes time to reassemble everything.

02:22After the screws are out, you just need to pry the case open. Try not to break a fingernail,

02:26that hurts. Note that this video shows pre-production hardware and there will be some differences

02:33between what you see here and the Steam Deck that you own.

02:38This is the battery. Before proceeding, it's important to disconnect it. Do that by unplugging

02:43these wires here. The first component we're going to replace is the thumbstick. This part is easy to

02:48remove. Be aware that the whole assembly is custom. The stick, the board, and the cap. Replacing these will

02:55require matching the custom parts exactly. Stay tuned in the coming months for a source for replacement parts,

03:00thumbsticks, SSDs, and possibly more. Lift this latch. Unplug the flex cable here. Remove these three screws.

03:11And then take the stick assembly out. That's it. Now just reverse all that to put another one back in.

03:16Let's move on to the SSD. We don't recommend replacing the included drive. What we do recommend for

03:23increasing your storage capacity is the handy microSD card slot. So much easier and plenty fast.

03:30Please note, before attempting an SSD replacement, an off-the-shelf SSD could cause problems.

03:361. Power consumption. An off-the-shelf SSD can draw more power than the original drive, which could cause

03:42overheating and reduce battery life. 2. Electromagnetic interference. Our SSD is located

03:48very close to our wireless module and was specifically chosen and tested to not interfere

03:53with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. An off-the-shelf SSD might have a different emissions pattern

03:57and could compromise wireless performance. 3. Mechanical. We place components on the

04:03motherboard underneath the SSD, and a different one might mechanically interfere with these components,

04:08especially during vibration. 4. Assembly. At least one screw which holds down the thermal module

04:15onto the APU is also used to hold down the shield can. Removing this screw can impact the thermal

04:21performance of the thermal module. Here we go. First, we're working on removing this outer shield.

04:28As you've just seen, these two screws come first. Two more screws under here. Okay, now you can actually

04:34remove the shield, but be super careful to not disturb the whole thermal setup. Very important to make

04:41doubly sure that the battery is disconnected before proceeding. Now, disconnect the drive. Note that all

04:48Steam Deck models use the M.2 connector for internal storage, including the 64GB model. To actually remove

04:55the SSD, remove one more screw here. That's it! We haven't filmed the entire reassembly process,

05:05but as we mentioned with the thumbstick, it's basically doing this whole thing again but backwards.

05:10Remember, if you have followed these directions correctly, you've done absolutely none of the

05:15preceding steps. But you're more informed now about what's inside your Steam Deck.

05:19Anyway, thanks for watching, and as always, let us know what you think.
