I will post about installing LinuxMint 19.1 Tessa to this SSD and then install Steam and update drivers.  Cinnamon, Mate, or Xfce  Desktop Environments your choice.

Here is my fork with updates to jon bitzens ConvergenceOS
https://github.com/wb7odyfred/ConvergenceOS
To use this to help install Steam on Ubuntu 18.04, Linux Mint 19.1, or Debian 9.6:
Open a terminal window, change directory to home, and issue a git command
to download the files of the ConvergenceOS directory
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/wb7odyfred/ConvergenceOS.git
cd ConvergenceOS
./build_convergence_zenity.sh
You may repeat run this bash shell script file ./build_convergence_zenity.sh.  It will update your LinuxMint operating system, create a couple desktop icons, and install Steam application to your user.

My Fedora Reddit Comment on install glibc-i686 32 bit library to fix missing libc.so.6 when starting Steam
https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/aoin2k/steam_fedora_29/
 sudo dnf install glibc-i686

I welcome you questions and comments below to create a better Steam Installation experience.
