In that case a PC is of course better, but the reason is mostly because it functions as a server and a laptop would be unnecessary, not because a laptop isnt flexible enough (which was OPs advantage of a laptop…
I personally have my laptop (with dGPU) connected to a 16 port USB hub when plugged in (and an ultrawide monitor), connected to all sorts of things (backup HDDs, microphone, audio system, camera etc). And when Im on the go, chances are I can do without those things for that time… Different things work different people though.
A laptop. So much more flexible than a desktop pc.
I’ll switch when they make a laptop with 30+TB storage like my desktop has lol
You can just connect 30TB of storage space to your laptop… yeah you cant move those HDDs around but you cant move your desktop around much either.
My desktop functions as a local file server and plex server.
If I bought a laptop and a bunch of hdds, it would cost maybe $500 more, and the hdds would be useless without a laptop plugged in.
A laptop is portable and that’s great, but it isnt always better.
