External SSD/Hard Drive

Hi folks Friend suggested an external SSD (I think) instead of an external Hard Drive recently My need is something that when a match is over, that I can quickly put from the SD card onto the external hard drive/SSD (and store footage on) Would SSD be the way to go? What do they require to connect them to the laptop? Thanks
