I got an external SSD for this game a few weeks ago and it runs a lot better since then. Had no problems with invisible walls or anything anymore. NPC and Players are visible from afar even in citys, just sometimes if its really too much to load like in calpheon or altinova you still see gray NPC models, and slow texture loading but you can instantly interact even if not fully loaded.
For reference: Got a Seagate 500 gb external SSD (https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-External-Reversible-Type-C-STCM500401/dp/B07DX9HDG8/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=seagate+500gb&qid=1570107055&sr=8-4)
Its not that expensive and works wunderfull
This is a really good one, but if you get it make sure the USB-C cable clicks in and doesn't just slide in. Mine came with a faulty cable that didn't click and breathing on it could make the ssd lose connection from my computer.
probably an anomaly but if it happens you just need a new cable.
It may be a bias but I work with a lot of hard drives and I have NEVER had an issue with any Seagate hard drive or their peripherals. Like samsung they are also actually in the business of making hard drives and not just an enclosure company filling their sleek overpriced enclosures with whatever they can get a good deal on cough g-drive, lacie cough This Seagate Fast SSD is the same speed as the samsung T5 (540mb/s) and $5 cheaper, and there is ZERO difference from the xbox branded version. I'd go with that.

Seems like a good price. I actually picked up the 2TB at $329, cheaper than amazon.com and cheaper than the alternatives from samsung, sandisk, etc...
Price History
The Samsung T5s have great reviews.
Seagate has a couple interesting offerings too:
Seagate Fast SSD & Seagate Game Drive for Xbox
(it appears the only difference is the enclosure/Xbox branding and 2-months Game Pass i.e. no additional optimizations etc.)
Also a neat option (what I ended up doing)... upgraded SSD in my workstation, picked up an enclosure for $15, plugged it in, win-win. Works like a charm (and it's even tax-deductible! ; )
