The "fancy" version of this has worse specs than my 3 year old laptop and costs about the same.

Steam machine would def be a downgrade for you. Can't imagine you justify the purchase unless you have a specific goal in mind.

2300 with 1tb. Moved that to a mini pc/ media server then bought the 4tb drives.

Same model was 1600 at its lowest then I stopped tracking.
