my mind is custard on this and I need 1TB of external storage for an rMBP right now how fast is USB3 really compared to thunderbolt.and do sample libraries need RAID + PCIe speeds. Its a 2012 mac mini, thats TB1 if i,m not mistaken.I think you'll be just fine. In theory, it's possible to saturate a TB1 bus if you're outputting a bazillion audio channels to a MADI auto interface AND pulling massive amounts of sample data for your Kontakt orchestral libraries from the MultiDock AND have a UAD DSP accelerator on the same bus. But for pulling samples and audio tracks from SSD and sending audio out to an audio interface with a non-ridiculous channel count I don't think you'll have any issues.
The things that really saturate a TB bus are 4k displays.

I have a 2013 Mac Pro cylinder which has six TB2 ports - but each pair of ports share the same TB2 bus, so it's really like having three ports, each of which has two jacks.
