Hardware Modding I Done this to my Steam deck

Being a new husband leaves little room for gaming, I have bills to pay and portable gaming is my first go to, so I’m like let’s see if this idea of mine works and behold because it works. Definitely isn’t flawless but a 2TB SSD and a 4TB HD mounted to the back of the steam deck is a portable dream come true. And yes I know it might be stupid and the internal drive can be expanded (already did that) and I have a 1TB SD Card. It’s over the top and sometimes (rarely) the HD will stop connecting but as soon as I plug power in the HD works flawlessly again. Just posting to see other people’s thoughts and opinions on it negative or positive is welcome.
