2023 MacBook Air backup storage

Will a Sandisk Extreme Portable SSD 2 TB work easily with a 2023 MacBook Air? I read people were having trouble with this device. I have no tech experience and need to just connect the device to the computer and hopefully use My Passport with this device. Does anyone know if I’m going to have trouble, or should I buy something else for backup? Tx

MacBook Air 11″, macOS 12.6

It should work: Backup disks you can use with Time Machine - Apple Support


Apple recommends "your backup disk should have at least twice the storage capacity of every disk or volume you're backing up." So a more comprehensive answer would require knowing the storage capacity of your MacBook Air.
