My SSD has plenty of space, so I don't think space is the issue?
Both in my case. I tried to just move the files over from the external to my internal drive initially and I still had the same issue. So I did a complete reinstall on my internal C drive too (deleted the files on my internal drive and re-downloaded the installer online). After that, it worked. You could try to reinstall the game on your external drive. But I didn't try it so no idea if it'd work or not. Later on in like a few patches, I might try to move the game back to my external drive and see if it's stable (because I also have way more space on my ssd than my C drive lol)
