I’m going to upgrade the micro SD card I use for emulation to one with more storage. What is the best way to close the micro SD card I have in my steam deck now to a new one so I can just plug in and go with all my games and save files?

    What’s wrong with “cp -r”?

    As far as “having a second SD slot to facilitate the copy” goes, Anker makes decent card readers.

      Won’t work if the card has multiple partitions, also might not copy symlinks properly. dd is the way to do this if you want an exact copy, you just need to be very careful. You can take a disk image, that way you only need one slot.
