I mainly get my content from private trackers and I want to invest in an external hard drive to put all of my movies and shows on. What external hard drive would you recommend with a decent upload rate? Should I consider an SSD?

For seeding? Nah. Not unless you have a ton of upload and loads of peers making requests.

Get something that has an internal mirror, that'll give you double the read throughput AND some redundancy.
