eSATA external drive for HR24

I've had an 8TB eSATA drive for HR24 Genie. The drive failed after about 8 years. I can no longer find a replacement- apparently eSATA drives are no longer available. Can I use a USB 3.0 drive with an eSATA converter cable? USB3.0 in the drive port, eSATA in the HR24 port. Will this work?
