An SSD is not recommended for video editing because editing can wear out the drives. It does work, however, and it's fast.

USB 3.0 is fast enough in theory, but you should get one with a fast hard drive in it. The non powered versions that are small like this one, I find sluggish at times. The larger powered ones, like this, should work just fine.

Thunderbolt is by far the fastest and most expensive option. You will literally pay double or more for identical sized drives. With a proper RAID setup, however, you can get several times the speed.

I've done HD editing off of plug in FW800 drives as well without any real issues. Unless you're working with 4K or RAW video, you should be okay with most consumer plug in USB 3 and FW800 drives.
