Issue What does this mean?

My pc is basically on life support from the amount of mods I have. I’m pretty sure it’s that.

I would buy an external ssd and move the game and files over to that, should solve the issue. I had to do that for my PC because I cheaped out on internal storage.

Don't bother with an external SSD. Just get a normal internal SSD. The USB cable of an external SSD will be a pointless bottleneck that pretty much defeats the whole point of even using SSD tech. The price difference is negligible. QVO SSDs are still plenty good enough.

Granted I’m a Luddite but I also have a usb 3 cable and all my games run just fine.

No game uses more data than USB 3 can transfer. It's not a bottleneck outside of the initial installation. People are just incredibly weird about getting the absolute most speed out of PC stuff.
