I am wanting to know whether I should use 1 large SSD for 3 VMs or give them their own dedicated smaller SSD, Each VM will only be running the Windows 10 OS with a few low usage apps so will this hurt performance and if so how much?

Makes no real difference either way. The SSD is fast enough to compensate.
I currently have all my VM's on one drive, and have not seen any performance hit as I start up more than one.

The rest of the system (CPU and RAM) has a lot more impact on the performance of that.
