Yep, but don't expect the same performance as the internal SSD, especially for playing Series S|X optimized games.

Yes, you can! I hooked up a Samsung T5 SSD to my Series S and it works like a charm for storing and playing backward-compatible games.

Totally! Plug in an external SSD for more storage, but keep in mind that only the official Seagate Expansion Card can run Series S|X games directly from it.
