My systems are listed below if it is any help and I am more than happy with both.
My systems are supported by two USB stacks that each hold 4 SSD and the stacks are hot pluggable. Both systems also have 2 SSDs on the mainboard. I use them for almost all my storage, for example one has all my old CD music stored on there as you only tend to write once and read often which it is an ideal use of an SSD. I total my installation as 14 SSDs varying in age from six months to four years and I have a few 250G and 500G SSDs I do not use day to day but I hold onto them as they still work. One disadvantage SSDs still suffer from is that they can fail without warning while the old spinners often get noise when they get near the end. Best way to avoid disaster is a good backup strategy, but then you need that no matter whet drives you are using.
I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 - Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU . The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
