It's interesting you mention 2020 and prices continuing to drop... The same will hold true for mechanical drives as well you know.
2tb drives are getting cheaper and cheaper.

If the drives are only a terabyte or two... External storage will still be a must.

They aren't. It's just a common design choice that Microsoft and Sony take for whatever reason.
Notebook drives tend to have the advantage of lower heat and noise as well.
