Thanks! What would be the advantage of two separate SSDs in this case? Is there something else besides more storage space?

Put the OS and applications on the 500GB, use the 1TB for projects, and the 4TB for backup/export and/or larger projects.

The idea is, some applications don't perform as well if they are running from the same drive as the project you are working on, specifically some adobe video editing scenarios benefit from separating these drives.
