Set up RAM Cache in your playback engine properly - I ran 300+ tracks off a slow USB 3 drive (non SSD) with zero issues. I usually set the Ram Cache around 20GB depending of machine's RAM size of course and session size.
FWIW even a slow SSD with a 600 MB/sec transfer speed sound have a enough bandwidth to do 500 tracks or more @ 96K/24 Bit
