Best Portable SSD for everyday use and backups for PC Storage Expert Advice

I have been researching the best portable SSD for the past few days because I need one for work files, travel, and regular backups. I checked reviews from major tech sites and they consistently recommend two models as top choices, the Samsung T7 Portable SSD and the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD.

SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD

Lexar ES3 1TB External SSD

I am still having trouble deciding which one would better fit my needs and would appreciate your expert advice. I usually work with large photos and video clips, and I need something that is fast, reliable, and durable. I also want to use it for transferring files between my laptop and desktop. Good heat control and long term performance matter to me.

So which one should I buy? Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
