"Still, another dongle to carry (with Mac Mini it's not that important) and a loss of speed/added latency for e.g. video editing. With normal usage patterns even USB 3.0 external thumb/SSD drives were just fine."
What is the speed difference between the on-board PCIe connected SSD vs. the USB3 connected SSD ? Aren't both PCIe and USB3 faster than the SSD, making it the bottleneck ?
A flash drive would, of course, be terribly slow ... do they make USB "thumb drives" that are SSD (not flash) ?
