Friends: Your tech advice needed re external drives for photo storage.I'm on an older iMac w USB and Thunderbolt ports. I've got about 20 TB of CR2 and JPG originals and backups stored on external drives that are 1-10 years old. Seagate, WD, Toshiba, LaCie (no brand loyalty here lol).The files usually just sit there. A drive might not be used for months. Only my Mac backup drive, a 1-year-old Seagate 5TB, is active daily.CyberMonday seems like a good time to transfer them all to new media. What specific products do you recommend? HDD or SSD? 1/2#photography

2/2 Have seen some discussions of SSD problems (though I suspect those are drives that are actually being used, rather than just sitting on the shelf). Thanks. Boosts to tech, photo instances appreciated.I do see this recent review from PC World; any agree/disagrees? https://www.pcworld.com/article/406861/best-external-drives.htmlListening Fox pic for attention; photo was made in Yellowstone in 2014 and re-edited today w AI software
