YES.
but it will not plug in without a really simple adapter, USB-A male to USB-C female (rated for USB-3 speeds for best results)
Do NOT install the drive-maker's drivers, but instead ERASE any new Drive by its immutable manufacturer-given Hardware-device-name. This allows you to access the drive even when the drive-maker's drivers are not loaded, such as in Recovery mode.

Yes. You will need an appropriate cable or adapter. They are not expensive.
Thank you so much. I'll try that
Thank you so much
