Hello all,

​

I am currently using a 128GB Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD USB flash drive
for the OS paired with a regular external HDD for storage

​

I'd like to upgrade the storage to a Samsung T7 external SSD.

​

This means that both USB 3.0 ports will be used at the same time: will
the RPi's performance throttle?

​

Thank you for your advice!
