Oh I hear you brother! I moved EVERYTHING onto my new M1 computer. Most of my images should have never been saved! I told myself I would delate them but never got around to it.
For a while I was known as the hummingbird guy on UHH. I notice that I have a group of 8887 photos, all with the title hummingbird. I burned out on hummingbirds I doubt I ever take another! I just discovered that not all of photo labeled "hummingbirds" are even hummingbirds. Some a lot of deer and wedding photos got into the mix! Fortunately they are in clusters so I will be able to rename them (someday).
I'm attaching two of my old hummingbird photos so you can see what I talking about. I have no idea how they got so mixed up!

I bought this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08GV4YYV7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1just 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.
