A hard drive should work (if it doesn't require too much power). A flash drive would work.

Thanks for sharing this guide on iPad external storage! For anyone curious about how external devices might affect performance or testing display/graphics performance while using storage heavy apps, I’ve also found this online tool useful: It’s a quick way to see how your device handles graphics tasks and storage-intensive operations without installing anything.
