I'm looking at a nice 1TB external SSD as a mobile work drive between my 2018 Mac Mini and Samsung Galaxy Book Pro. Both devices have Thunderbolt 3 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 but reputable 1TB drives are around $150ish.
I have 2x 500GB Samsung 850 EVOs and I was thinking of using that as a cheap 1TB with the cost of the enclosure only $75 vs $150 for a dedicated 1TB.
Does anyone have any real world experience with this setup? My main real world applications would be 1GB+ Affinity Photo files and a shared Lightroom catalog between both computers.
