I researched about the best external hard drive for the past few days because I need one for storing and backing up my important files, photos, videos, and other data. I read reviews, and they are recommending these two as the best:

SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD
https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-2TB-Extreme-Portable-SDSSDE61-2T00-G25/dp/B08HN37XC1

Seagate 8TB Expansion Desktop Hard Drive
https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Expansion-Desktop-Drive-Black/dp/B092R5KTT7

However, I am having trouble deciding which one would best suit my needs and need your expert advice. I mainly want something reliable with enough storage, good performance, and easy backup. So which one should I buy? Any recommendation will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
