No gaming on USB 3.1 external SSD, what about Thunderbolt 3?

Hello,

I have a razerblade for work, don't want to riddle it with games and software. If I install Windows 10 and STEAM on this:

How will it run?

Thanks!

it should work as long as you can set it to boot off it.
and if you do get one get it here:

Nice that's a deal. yeah i was giong to boot it from boot menu f12. But wilt it have the same bottleneck as a Samsung T5?

what are you referring to?
T3 is supposed to do 40Gbps and sata 3 is 6Gbps, should be plenty fast. unless there is a delay due to hardware.

I also found this that mentions it has to be a "windows to go" install and requires enterprise. they are talking about booting on a mac but this might apply to pc.
