External with a Gen4 SSD is the golden ticket. Gen5 and you lose the speed gains due to TB5 anyway. Best bet is something like a 980 pro from Samsung and an Acasis TB5 enclosure.

for the thin 15 you'll want a single sided nvme drive since clearance is tight in there. the samsung 980 runs cool and fits perfectly - used that in a similar chassis. western digital sn770 is another solid pick if you want to save a bit. just avoid drives with heatsinks or double sided nand, they w

i ran into this last month. the ps5 needs double the game size free during install because it copies then verifies. so a 70gb game needs 140gb free. 109gb is basically a dead zone where nothing big fits. easiest fix is grabbing an external ssd for ps4 games or moving stuff to extended storage. for p

Samsungs are not made for laptops??????
