Hi everyone. Figured this would be the best place for this seemingly simple question. I have a home arcade and I was wondering where best to store my ROMs? I find myself constantly trying new OS’s and don’t mind spending a weekend going all in, but eventually I will find exactly what I want and will settle. So my question is, in terms of just ROM storage, does it matter between an SSD or a USB?

    External SSD is way better than USB key. I just got a Samsung T7 and compared to name brand keys it is far superior. Both the controller and the chips are better quality. The speed is consistently fast compared with keys that always seem to slow down / hang / fluctuate on big transfers. I don’t know what the actual stats hare but have heard SSD just has higher IOPS
