Would hesitate to recommend an external drive as the insides of the devices change too regularly.
I bought a Toshiba Canvio a few years back which is still going (the previous Western Digital device had died after 10 years). However I only use that device every few months to backup to so it hasn't actually had that many hours of powered up time. So it might not be a good device in reality after probably only 300 hours of use.
Hence don't assume that just because mine is still working, 1 purchased today would last as long.
