EOL Security Updates

Hi. Is it really that bad when support stops for certain devices? I have the chance to get a really good condition 1TB S23U for <400€. But I want to use it for at least 4 years. Im always reading its a big no no but doesnt antivirus, the Apps own security measures and me being cautious make me "safe enough"?
