Default What's a good external portable huge drive and disc burner to get these days?

Hello.

I love my old Seagate's light and small 2.5" Seagate HDD (USB2), but its 500 GB
is too small and slow these days. What'a good one like that is faster, bigger
storage size, and physically small and light? Also, it doesn't require a
separate power connector (should be optional though if needed). I don't needs
its cloud, encryption, etc. features. I can do that on my own.

I also will still need to use optical discs once in a while. A BRD
reader is OK, but burner is not needed. It just needs to burn CDs and
DVDs (dual layer too).

Both external portable devices still need the old USB2 port support for
older computers (PCs with Windows, Linux, and mac OS) beside the newer
computers like the (lat/new)est MacBooks.

Anything good and on sale from Best Buy, Amazon, Costco, Fry's
Electronics, etc.?

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon.
