Setup :

Vertical Mouse (~90 $) or Trackpad (~55-170 €)

I recommend a mouse (vertical)

Keyboard (~325 $ (with the build below))

or if you don't want to spend that kind of money and don't mind some soldering & 3D printing, you can make your own here (under 30€)

External SSD (~40 €)

Casing for External SSD (~35 €)

It's always better to have SSD as internals because windows will disconnect your external SSD (USB connected) when you do large file transfers

Headphones (~77-150 €)

Comfy Office Chair with lumbar support (~170-450 €)

Standing Desk (~115-300 €)

ps: you can just get sturdy legs and then get a counter top from ikea

3D Printers (~350-1100 €)

ps: I Personally recommend Prusa & Creality
