There's actually some good stuff in the mix:
1TB Samsung 860 QVO SSD
Amazon - $87.99
Just started using windows to go, this could work great for it if you get an adapter
Amazon has the Samsung 860 QVO 1TB on sale right now (Nov 25, 2019) for $89
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Inch-Internal-MZ-76Q1T0B-AM/dp/B07L3D19MY/
there is also the Seagate Firecuda 2TB on sale for $59, but i'm not sure if that 2TB capacity works in the PS3?

Change out the internal drive my dude. Something like this will quadruple the amount of storage space you have and make your computer perform quite a bit faster. (Assuming you have a laptop) it's pretty easy and you should be able to find a tutorial for whatever your specific laptop is. If it's a desktop PC then it'll take practically no effort at all to put in a new drive.
External HDDs aren't very good for gaming since they typically have very low transfer speeds.
I did this recently, the best option is a mix of both.
An internal SSD for games you're currently playing, and you can use the Pro's current HDD as an external for games you play less often (it's fairly quick to move a game from one to the other).
SSDs have dramatically dropped in price and are now very affordable, here's a 1TB SDD for $120 from the most reputable brand on the market.
The old HDD can be used as an external by putting it in a USB 3.0 enclosure/caddy like this one.
Here's the official article for replacing the HDD. It says to push the notch to the left, but it's easier pushing it towards the bottom (up on that diagram).

I got a 1tb ssd for $100 and it works great
Edit: looks like it’s around $120 now, but here’s a link if you want
Same price on Amazon too.
You're probably just going to make a lot more work and asspain for yourself by trying to avoid Windows.
Linux is great, every machine in my home is on Unix. That being said, Windows is great too - and it sounds like you pretty much have to use it.
​
Of course, you could set up a reasonably beefy (honestly probably just midrange for office work) multi-seat linux computer assuming that all of the workstation are within USB range of one another. The hardest part will be that you aren't going to have enough PCIe slots (or budget) to give each seat a GPU - so you'll have a more complex configuration.
Then I guess you could set up each seat so that it only displays a Windows KVM - and keep the system on all the time, which is actually pretty normal for this type of application anyways. It really wouldn't even be that difficult, in theory at least. You could probably even build a system in your budget that would feel incredibly fast (assuming you already have keyboards, mice and monitors - and it sounds like you do).
I'd do hardware something like this:
1> 4 of these in raidz2/raid6 doubles your storage, sustains two simultaneous drive failures and gives you exponentially more performance than those HDD's - this is what will make your machine "feel" so much better to the end users than those POS workstations you linked
2a> For the GPU solution, it sounds like you need 6 monitors, so I'd get either 2x P400's
2b> or 2x Radeon WX 2100's
The rest of the hardware stick with what's in your RD430, if you don't have already have 64GB of DDR3 - then get 64GB of DDR3, used DDR3 ECC is crazy cheap. You should plan on 8GB for the host, and 8GB for each VM minimum - you can ofc get away with less, but it's cheap so don't.
That's about $680 in hardware again assuming you have the monitors, keyboard, mice already - and you already have the CPU/Motherboard/PSU.
​
This will probably be a pita to setup though.
That being said - once you do get it up and running, the performance is going to be SO much better (thanks to more RAM, very fast storage, and the fact that all file sharing is local since it's a multi-seat setup) than those god awful workstation you are considering it actually might be worth it *IF* you are willing to put in the work.
​
I wouldn't even think about trying this until you load up 6 Windows 10 VM's on your RD430, and run an office productivity benchmark in all of them simultaneously and see if your CPU is going to be up to the task.
Here’s the cheapest @ $89.99 and Here’s one from a more reputable brand, the Samsung 860 QVO
Now not all SSDs are created equal, I wanted peak performance so I used the Samsung 860 EVO which is faster than the QVO but it’s $150
Edit/add: just make sure in conforms to the size limits, a 2.5” drive, no thicker than 9mm

Ok. SSD in an enclosure for temp work. HDD for storage.
Got a Samsung 860 QVO 1TB. Its a cheaper 1TB drive while still being higher quality. Because its not complete mission critical info (meaning it not something like stored photos, old stored files, ext) ill keep you with the QLC flash. Goes with an USB C enclosure that you can just plug in separately from the HDD dock.
Got a 4 drive bay. This is all USB 3.1, but USB 3.1 can handle even the SSD without an issue. Also Thunderbolt docks are expensive.
Going for a 6TB WD Blue drive for 3 reasons:
1: I've known WD drives to be very reliable and of high quality.
2: Value wise, its good to go with the 6TB drive.
3: Adds more expandability.
24TB of storage total whenever you get to buying all 4 drives.
About $416 total assuming you get one 6TB drive.

higher end one? samsung 860 QVO 1TB, $117
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L3D19MY/ref=psdc_1292116011_t1_B07D998212
Is that in US dollars?
I guess the Samsung Qvo is listed at around $120 for me, but it's usually been $110 or $107 when I've checked:
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MZ-76Q1T0-V-NAND-Quality-Optimized/dp/B07L3D19MY/
The Sandisk 1tb is $99.99 for me right now. I've seen them go on and off of sale over the last few days so it's increased in price it will probably come down again:
https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-SSD-PLUS-Internal-SDSSDA-1T00-G26/dp/B07D998212/
Or are you not in the US? If you're not that's cool I just am not as familiar with prices elsewhere.
You'll be cutting it really close then at 800. Go for a ryzen 5 2600x and an Rx 590 8GB card.
GPU - 239 USD
CPU + RAM - 295USD
SSD - 117 USD

So would you consider this to be a much more viable option for a few more bucks?

I would recommend sticking with Thinkpad. I believe that Qubes developers use Thinkpad for development. So they are a relatively safe bet. I used to T440s ( something like the link below) with 12Gb of RAM, I7 CPU. Qubes runs well, not super, but enough for entry level. I switched to T470p because my workload increased. The PC you showed looks great on paper, but it's really out-dated. I suggest using SSD entirely. it's really cheap nowadays. It should be below your budget and better than the Dell machine. Hope this help.

No no no, I don't like the y545 or 1650 or that deal at all.
If you want an i7, Walmart again, has a nice config on y540 (better model) with a 1660ti (much better), and a 144hz screen (much better).
Also, some nice deals on compatible hard drives are popping up on compatible SATA SSDs. I'm partial to Samsung. 860 Evo 1tb for $109 or the great value 860 QVO 1tb for $88. Just saw that so I thought I'd throw those in.
I would go DRAM TLC over QLC for a primary drive. I just don't see the value in them when TLC is not that far away in price and capacity (the 1 TB 860 EVO vs QVO is basically the same). While QLC gives you lots of SSD storage for "cheap", you lose out harder than TLC during the initial phase when you hammer it with all your installs and over time as the drive reaches capacity. Get an ADATA SU800 series/TEAMGroup L5 3D or a Crucial MX500/Samsung 860 EVO depending on your price bracket then work forward from there. QLC should really be reserved for a secondary drive, and even then I'd still argue you're better off just picking up more TLC drives (with or without DRAM) if you're gonna use it as another program/game drive. Leave the QLC for your other data storage.
I do also recommend just gathering your storage over time instead of buying it all outright at the beginning. From the very first time I built for myself to now, I have 5 drives currently in my Zenic Scion of Callisto:
That 500 GB Cav Blue was my original drive from the first build of the Desktop of Theseus. The only drive missing there is a 240 GB OCZ ARC 100 that I had put into the DoT during an overhaul which is now just sitting on my desk. Whenever I would overhaul my build, I would throw in newer storage with higher capacities/performance. The older drives would then be cycled to less important roles like file and media storage as the newer SSDs took up the slack. You should only need to replace drives when they're obsolete or when they've failed, otherwise just keep adding capacity to your headers.
Change SSD to this one: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Inch-Internal-MZ-76Q1T0B-AM/dp/B07L3D19MY/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=ssd&qid=1557250825&s=electronics&sr=1-5
[I have used M.2 and SSD, to human eye you dont see any difference in games, plus its going to save you so much money]
Please don't go for that graphics card, the reason is if you are getting a i9 9900k you have to go with a strong gpu otherwise you wont see the performence of your CPU my reccomendation is: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-GAMING-Graphics-08G-P4-2182-KR/dp/B07GHVWMBS/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=rtx+2080&qid=1557250978&s=gateway&sr=8-4
​
+ You don't have to pay $100 for windows licence you can pick one up for $12 online and install it.
Thank you so much for the informative reply.
The SSD I was planning on getting is a SATA III 2.5" form factor, just wanting to make sure it indeed fits and if you recommend it or not, as you seem to be very knowledge.
Thank you so much again, you're a life saver.

The 22Gbps limit is the maximum PCIe bandwidth that Thunderbolt 3 can transfer. Because TB3 MUST guarantee USB 3.1 Gen 2 Compatibility (10Gbps), and Displayport Compatibility (around 12Gbps), about 20Gbps is reserved for those, even if you aren't using them. TB3 actually tops out at around 42-44Gbps.
Keep in mind that 2 x Sata disks at 6Gbps each, that's 12Gbps TOTAL, not 6Gbps. Your RAID enclosure takes EACH 6Gbps port and combines it together.
Check this out,OWC 4x NVMe TB3 + Displayport $300
Fill it with these:
2TB Intel 600p $200 each x 4
or
4 x 2.5" SATA 6Gb Thunderquad to TB3
and 1TB Samsung QVO cheap but good 2.5" SSD
More than definitely. I would suggest looking into a 1660 over the 2060, though. I've heard a lot of negativity about the 20X0 series, and you get more bang for your buck with the 1660 (that is unless you get a really good sale on the 2060 of course).
I would also personally take a hit with the SSD and get a 250GB Samsung, Intel, or even Western Digital over a 500GB of some side brand. Last thing you want is your main OS drive failing on you for any reason. You can always add on a secondary SSD as a game drive in the future. Alternatively, if you can spend an extra $50 or so, you can easily find a 1TB Samsung 860 SSD around $100. Hell, you could start off with the 1TB SSD and then eventually get a mass storage HDD in a month or two or whenever you can afford it. (I do suggest an HDD for files/pictures/etc over an SSD because SSDs take more of a hit over time from a lot of rewriting data.)

What is the difference between this SSD and this other SSD?
A 650w PSU would be plenty for your build
This is 2019, and 1tb SSDs are no longer super expensive. Unless you already have more than 500gb of software and media to load on a storage drive, get a 1tb SSD and wait on a mechanical drive. When your SSD gets to about 75% full (performance starts dropping as they get really full) then make a decision on what kind of drive you want to add next.
Here's a good one for the price https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Inch-Internal-MZ-76Q1T0B-AM/dp/B07L3D19MY/
Any of them! :)

OP is right, 2.5" AHCI is dead. Next-gen consoles will have PCI 4.0 NVME drives in them, so games will be designed with NVME SSDs as a baseline requirement.
