iOS/iPadOS doesn’t provide a backup facility to external storage devices. If you intend to use this method, you’ll have to manually copy data to the external storage device. When determining the required storage capacity, you’ll need to select a device with at least as much storage as used on the iPad - potentially at least the maximum capacity of your iPad.
Here is a support page that describes the supported backup methods to either iCloud or iTunes (on PC or Mac):
