Everyone I know who does video and audio edition keeps the assets on external drives.

Not while editing, surely? - you'd want max disk access speed for that?

Hence why fast external drives have been a thing for a long time, and you can distribute the sources across the drives to multiply their bandwidth (and storage). SCSI, firewire, now thunderbolt, all exceeded the speed of the practical storage at the time.

they use proxy files ( lower resolution ) for all the rough work. once they are ready to do the fine tuning they use fast arrays over thunderbolt.

So it boils down to how large are the projects you typically work on? - I don't seem to have any difficulty using hundreds of gigs while editing video even at 1080p....
