$100 and if I knew a little bit more about this type of drive I would pull the trigger.

Is this a trustworthy drive to work off of (photo, short and long form video) or is this just meant for storing and transferring?

Can't speak from experience but gamer Nexus the YouTube channel uses and endorses these hard drives for storing game and exchanging data back and forth between different PCs

Almost half of the recent reviews for Crucial SSD in Amazon have been critical. Do your research before buying or spend a few more bucks and go with Samsung T7.

If you're just looking for some thing to store, this is a good deal. The T7 is probably faster, your choice should depend on your use case

X6 and T7, qlc vs tlc, sata vs nvme. Better Nada chips and faster speed, I think it's worth the $10 more.

Thoughts on using it as an external drive for Xbox to speed up load times?

I bought a 2TB version of this brand from amazon on prime day for $132, the model I bought didn't come with usb-c to usb-a cable (only usb-c to usb-c, have to use my own usb-a adaptor). Have been using it on my NAS 24x7, it's a little bit slow but overall it works well.
