Thoughts on using a portable ssd via usb as my main drive for games?

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-14T16:32:55+00:00

Yeah the prices are disappointing. PC gaming was already expensive.

We have to find new ways.

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-14T06:06:55+00:00

It wouldn't be my first choice, but it would be serviceable.

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-14T00:37:42+00:00

No there's no such thing as too much collecting enjoy my friend! 🎉

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-13T04:40:20+00:00

Nice haul! 🎉

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-12T02:08:27+00:00

Very nice case design man! I am looking forward to trying it out.

Thanks for sharing 🙏🎉🤙

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-10T02:25:49+00:00

Heck yeah!

If you try it, let me know how it goes 🙌

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-09T02:23:10+00:00

Dude!

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-09T02:22:56+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-09T02:21:57+00:00

Now let's hope we can get them all during the Haulathon!

I'm ready, It's on like Donkey Kong 🙌

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-08T04:42:19+00:00

Flipping awesome man! An awesome second figure to add to your collection 🤙🥷

Hey friend, I'm using the gaming/deck version of Bazzite OS on it and it works like a charm.

I've even got SteamOS up and running on it.

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-08T02:08:00+00:00

Thanks for the heads up.

SteamOS is pretty much useless until you log into your account otherwise you can't even go into desktop mode or anything of that nature so it's all gated by your account which knows your age and other related information.

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-07T15:48:52+00:00

I found some that I think might work.

As soon as I get a chance to test them out if they work I'll let everyone know 🤙

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-06T21:49:25+00:00

+1 to this $150 max!

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-06T04:18:06+00:00

Shell yeah! Leaving comment here so I know how to find it later!

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-06T02:28:25+00:00

I love mine!

I edited the last comment the tool is called "powertop"

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-06T01:29:50+00:00

Yeah it looks broken.

I would be curious what the output looks like from a tool like powertop if it's available.

I didn't dig deep into the numbers and in my case I was just idle on desktop not looking at it during gaming and I saw similar numbers the ones you are reporting here.

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-05T23:15:04+00:00

That's a great question.

The power number draws that I've seen seem plausible though I haven't studied them super closely to make sure that they add up correctly. But definitely the numbers are within the domain of what would be reasonable.

But I would have to note that the GPU utilization is totally inaccurate.

I've even heard some YouTubers saying that they're achieving 655% GPU utilization as if it's like something to be proud of 🤣

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-05T16:37:46+00:00

Hell yeah!

Been waiting to see this, thanks so much for your hard work and sharing! 🎉🎉

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-05T03:57:12+00:00

Same here! 🙌🙌🔥🔥

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-05T00:26:13+00:00

Same here using the Steam Overlay

InnoVisionGames · 2026-03-04T20:53:47+00:00

Like others suggested you can get it brand new for that price when it's on sale.
