Yeah until you can't fill up the SD because the boot drive is full of shaders.

256 GB deck should be the baseline tbh, even with an SD card

From what i know you can put shaders on sd card.

Technically you can, but anytime the shaders need to update it'll download the full shader cache back to the boot drive so there's a lot of back and forth
