Thinking of buying a flash drive to store games on.

I am starting to get into getting more games on my PC, but I realized I am low on space. I am thinking of buying this pen drive: Amazon Basics 256GB Ultra Fast USB 3.1 Flash Drive.

The idea is that I would move the games to and from the flash drive to the laptop’s C: drive whenever I want to play one (not moving games frequently though). I am unknowledgeable when it comes to storage so tell me if the flash drive is too slow for this to work or if the idea is too stupid altogether.

If you want to go the USB drive route, a USB SSD over USB3 might be the most performant.
