How would I run applications on two different machines from the same location?

[MrRockliffe]

My girlfriend and I both have pretty competent machines now (both i7s, both boot from an SSD, mid/high end GPU), but have little storage (she only has her SSD which is 250GB)

We need to start installing programmes like NX (50GB without any rendering add-ons), MATLAB (computational software) and other demanding software. Instead of investing in different storage solutions, is it possible to have a single solution that caters for both machines?

Damn okay, so completely not worth it

I think just buying a few hard drives for each system would be better tbh

In an ideal world though
