Summary of test statistics from Kruskal-Wallis (K-W) test, which tests for differences between groups, and multiple comparison Dunn test on meristic variables. Variables tested include number of pectoral fin rays (RPF), fin rays in the spiny dorsal fin (RD1), soft fin rays in the dorsal fin (RD2), caudal fin rays (RCF), anal fin rays (RAF), no. of gill rakers (GR) and the angles of the 3rd preopercular spine (PS3) and 5th preopercular spine (PS5) for samples from Norway (N) and Greenland (G). For the Dunn test, ranked means between groups are significantly different (*) if they do not share a letter for a given variable.

The external solid-state drive (SSD) market for gaming is experiencing robust growth, driven by the increasing demand for faster load times, higher storage capacities, and improved performance in gaming applications. The market, estimated at $5 billion in 2025, is projected to witness a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15% from 2025 to 2033, reaching approximately $15 billion by the end of the forecast period. This expansion is fueled by several key factors, including the rising popularity of high-fidelity gaming, the proliferation of next-generation consoles with demanding storage requirements, and the increasing adoption of cloud gaming services, which require high-speed data transfer capabilities. Major players like ADATA, Western Digital, Crucial, Samsung, Seagate, ASUS, and SanDisk are actively investing in research and development to enhance product features, such as improved read/write speeds, enhanced durability, and innovative form factors, to meet the evolving demands of the gaming community. The segment is further segmented by storage capacity (e.g., 1TB, 2TB, 4TB+), interface type (USB 3.2 Gen 2x2, Thunderbolt 4), and form factor (portable, external enclosure). The market's growth trajectory, however, is not without challenges. Price remains a significant factor influencing consumer decisions, especially in price-sensitive regions. Competition is intensifying with new entrants and existing players constantly introducing advanced features and competitive pricing strategies. Technological advancements, particularly in storage technologies like NVMe and PCIe, offer potential for further market disruption, while concerns about data security and product longevity continue to play a role in consumer purchasing decisions. Nevertheless, the consistent trend towards higher-resolution gaming, the emergence of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) gaming, and the continued miniaturization of electronics suggest a sustained period of growth for the external SSD gaming market. Regional variations exist, with North America and Europe currently dominating market share, although rapid growth is anticipated in Asia-Pacific regions fueled by increasing disposable income and gaming penetration.
