I just moved all my images of from my old 2013 MacBook into my 8TB SSM MacBook Pro and created a new index to help me locate my photos

Which external drive options would you recommend?

8TB SSD external for under 1K$
it's certainly less expensive. Is as good? Maybe, I don't know.

Thanks. Filed away for when I upgrade to the new MacBookPro.
I bought this one:

just so I could drag and drop things from my old 2013 MacBook onto my new computer. I formatted it using the new computer and I can drag and drop items into. My old 2013 will not allow me to drag and drop. I hope there is a mutually comparable formatting that will work!!!
I have a bad head cold and I'm sneezing a lot. I not in mood to deal with India. I'll call the Amazone help number when I feel up to it.

From the little bit of experience I had using both external and internal SSM, external sucks!

With some generous help from from Apple support I'm finally able to use a SanDisk 2TB Portable SSD to move some desired files from my old dying 2013 16 inch MacBook Pro over onto my new 2021 16" M1 MacBook Pro.
It is a real pain because the screen in my old computer is dying. If I turn on my 77" flatscreen TV, I have about 3 minutes to use Apple TV to open Screen Mirroring activated and have the functioning screen appear on the big flat screen TV. After that the screen on my old computer is not readable.
I'm not sure if it will be worth the expense and effort of having that screen repaired? If it's not too expensive I might get it fixed just to give to a friend.
One of the first images I moved was a picture I took of my house a few years ago, and now use it as my desk top image.
