“All external hard drives seem to come with a USB cable that has the older, wider traditional USB connector. The new MacBooks come only with narrower USB-C ports. What cables would you recommend I purchase to DIRECTLY connect this hard drive with a Mac?”

• You don't necessarily have to buy a new cable. They make USB-A to USB-C adapters that will work for connecting the hard drive to the mac.

  I would recommend:
