Can you recommend an External Hard Drive that is compatible with Mac Catalina 10.15 and Windows simultaneously? I like to use my hard drive on both my PC and Mac. Thank you!

Any external drive will work. You need to format it to a compatible format that works with both OSs. ExFat can be read/write with both Windows and Macs. Be aware that Time Machine won't work with a drive formatted ExFat.
