Macbook pro 19 128 GB + 1TB hard drive for 120k total or 256 GB?

Question

macbook

I want to buy a macbook for personal use. In the future, Photoshop and video editing as a hobby, plus ease of use, coupled with other apple devices. I do not plan to make money on a hobby, but who knows how life will turn out.
Does it make sense to take 256 GB if you can buy 128 plus external hard, when on a poppy 60 GB will be occupied by software and all media libraries, backups, etc. will be stored on an external ssd? The difference in price is 16k between 128 and 256 (both options with an external ssd)
And tell me good ssds up to 10k on a budget.
I take a laptop as an Old Believer, 5-7 years ahead) judging by the questions, most people here are the same, and do not chase mindless consumption)

Answer 1

1. The less space on an SSD drive, the faster it wears out. Therefore, a 256GB drive will be more reliable. Moreover, you take a laptop for several years.
2. Video editing takes up a lot of space, so constantly transferring projects from an external drive to an internal one and back will be inconvenient.
3. In a few years you will want to sell your laptop. 128 GB of disk will seem ridiculous, and you can’t sell such a laptop for a serious price.
So 256.

Answer 2

SSDs in Apple laptops are not replaceable. 128GB is very small in principle. And they don't sell at all.
The external mounting screw is a bug. Buy multiple SSDs.
