I'm sure vizzini will be along soon to refute this with some absolute fucking nonsense but two points:
- it doesn't matter how fast your drive is, if you have it connected via USB 2 or something, you've got a bottleneck
- user level SSDs do have a finite r/w limit but the general day to day demands on them are so low, it will last a lot longer than it will actually be useful for in terms of storage. Tldr: you will want to replace it long before it dies.
On the surface, I would get an internal ssd and move everything into that and just use your external drive for storing porn or whatever.
Certainly true of SSDs. 5 years is the minimum average life for most and anyone looking at having something like a rift or Vive is going to be upgrading far more frequently than that.
