Have you upgraded your internal storage? How did it go? Did you reinstall steamOS from scratch or clone the original M.2/eMMC?

I just got the 64GB version and I plan to replace the SSD soon. I'll reinstall steamOS, and before that I need to figure out what's the best way to have encrypted data on it (e.g. credentials for communities etc) or even have Full Disk Encryption. Haven't settled my mind on this but generally it'd be good to have the whole deck secure so in case it gets stolen nobody can empty my wallet on the steam store.

It looks like there is a bios lock option if you want to go that route

Although since it is required before startup it would require some form of keyboard to enter your password

I didn't think about the password entering problem, thanks for bringing that up!
