So,
since i'm getting tired of USB drives started to do a quick search around for SSD externals.

This seems a tad expensive but, could be worth it what do you guys think?

I say wait till the 1 TB ones get cheaper and then buy one of those.
Either wait, or build your own. (get a 2.5 inch USB 3 enclosure) ($300 is a ripoff)
e.g.,

same storage, and you save $100
The main difference is that the samsung uses a m sata 850 evo
For write endurance, it may be a tossup between the 2 drives, the 2.5 inch drive is using a smaller process node MLC nand, while samsung is using a larger process node (thus more endurance), but a significant portion of the endurance is sacrificed through TLC.
both SSD's will offer reads and writes which are higher than what the USB 3 bus can offer, (the best USB 3 controllers top out at a little over 400MB/s )
