I thought this video was pretty interesting
I think it has been talked about quite a bit that the newer PCI-E-based SSDs don't offer much benefit outside of synthetic benchmarks in terms of games, and the video really showcased that alongside a bunch of drives of different types.
Ultimately, having a nice larger SSD (be it SATA or PCI-E) is far superior from loading from HDD, but beyond that the extra cost for a 1TB or 2TB drive may not be necessary, especially if you already have a large-ish drive.
