SSD Storage Upgrade

Question

This is my current machine. I've been reading through this article on storage optimization.I currently have an HDD and NVME. I am looking to buy an additional SSD. I currently have my OS and Creative Cloud apps on the NVME, and then I have my project files, cache, source media, scratch, exports and archive on the HDD.Should I move my project files to the NVME with the OS, and have the apps, cache, scratch, and source media loaded to the new SSD, and then exports and archive on the HDD? Or do I set this up another way for better results.My motherboard doesn't have a second NVME slot, so I'm stuck with one NVME slot for now (and I prefer getting a cheaper SSD anyway).Thanks!

Personally, I'd probably use a good SSD as the OS disk, and another as projects/media, and maybe the Nvme for preview/cache drive.

HDD ... spinning discs ... are pretty much a main storage tool, not that great for use with "live" projects.
