Get one with a usb 3.1 gen2 interface (will probably be a usb-c connector,
obviously you would need a usb-c to usb-a cable, probably in the box if not
extreme bargain basement). I use a Samsung T5 500 GB as my system drive for
an iMac where I ran out of space on the built-in "fusion drive". I don't
notice it being slower, might even be a bit faster in some situations like
boot up. I wouldn't get a 250 GB version, they are usually a lot slower.
This one or Sandisk Extreme Portable are probably good.
