I had this problem when I had a 128 macbook pro. Totally worth it if your system is crapping out when you hit capacity and you don't want to upgrade your system.

USB-C should handle transfers just fine, you'd probably just get capped by the SSD's (and/or the enclosure too) read/write speeds. I never really found it a problem, I threw the ~50-60GB of photos which I don't access often in the SSD. I've now got a 512GB macbook pro which I struggle filling, it just floats around the ~200-300GB used mark now.
