Sounds to me like you need an external ssd and not a usb drive. I recommend Asus TUF Gaming A1 nvme enclosure (~50€ where I live) and an ssd of your choice.
You said that the external disk wasn’t going to work with your keys and I made a joke implying that it might be a driver issue with your keys and that by upgrading the keys it would solve your issue. Obviously you were referring to the size of the media and not a compatibility issue but there was enough vagueness in your comment to support an amusing misinterpretation.
Those are USB 2, then. That’ll be quite slow for moving iso’s onto and booting from.
Not to mention for moving the files of a steam game.
But yeah, the old solid state storage NAND in them is probably “built different”, literally.

That’s not gonna work with my keys.
check and see if your keys have a driver update you might be surprised
What? I don’t understand.
USB mass storage drivers are an OS issue, one I don’t even think about as a linux user.
If you mean firmware, that’s gonna be tricky to update on drives that are straight up dead and no longer even detected.

They do still sell the design (“Cruzer”). At least, the outer casing part. Though I suppose they could be totally shit and cheap on the inside 🤷🏻♂️
