If I do buy an X or Live, most likely would drop a 250gb in there and buy a seperate 2 TB USB backup drive. Maybe upgrade the ssd to larger as prices drop on ssd drives. I don't record audio tracks very often. Mostly use midi channels and samples.
I'm pretty patient though, so probably would buy one of the standalones after prices drop on the units themselves plus ssd drives in larger sizes. Depends on how it handles multisample instruments too. I wouldn't want some extensively multisampled instrument to use up all my RAM just for the one instrument. I don't foresee a situation where I wouldn't setup some other hardware synth or rompler with it. Even if it is the Live on battery and something like my Circuit or JX-03 with it also running on battery power.
