@@des_AT Yep. I have one 2 tb and one 1 tb 980 Pro in my #2 PC. But I have two SN850x and one SN850 in my #1 PC, all 2 tb. I like to have them all available for photo editing.. and have 14, 16 and 18 tb HDD's for storage. But, in my #1 laptop, I have the 1 tb drive it came with, likely a 980Pro, and another 2 tb SN850X. That's plenty-ish.. but if I could find a used 4 tb Gen 4 drive for $150-180, I'd go for it. Sure, after editing new images while I'm on a trip, I do transfer them to my 2 tb Sandisk Extrem Pro and then to my main PC, but one 4tb in the laptop would give me room for more older images.
. @WestHaddnin I just ordered a used 4 tb on ebay for $199. I'll run CDM and CD Info when I get it. Any problems and I'll return it. Ebay buyer protection is good. Now, I'll try to sell my 2 tb one, in box, seal intact.
The Samsung SSD 990 PRO and the WD Black SN850X NVMe SSD are both very fast storage products. In fact, users should not notice any differences in everyday use. You can therefore choose one or the other SSD based on the current price.
Amazon has the Samsung 990 Pro 4TB @ $280 without heatsink
2tb is more than enough for some of us

I’ve already used up half the storage since this message. Games are big these days but I’ll get another 4TB next Black Friday
