I have ubuntu on an internal ssd for a long time. I even didn't make a
swap partition as suggested and ubuntu is very speedy so sage is too

The cost of such disks, 100GB would give you more than enough,
is below $100.
I do have an SSD. Is the software and installation the same as for
a USB?
Yes and no.
It's "installing Linux on a drive", be it SSD, HD, USB stick, makes
little difference.
Typically one need to install a smallish initial Linux setup, and then
populate the rest over the net.
To start, you'd typically boot from a prepared USB (or a CD/DVD) -
something that is referred to as "installer media", or
"installation media", and then
tell it to install the Linux system on the HD/SSD of your choice.
So the step 0 is to get the "installation media" ready. E.g. Ubuntu
provides the detailed instructions:
https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
This is in principle the same as getting a Live USB with Linux.
(And this is why I wrote "Yes" in "Yes and no" above)
HTH,
