Hey everyone!

Apologies if this isn’t the right place to ask, but I need a little advice on the easiest way to go about backing up my old computer (which has developed some disk issues in recent months with both the boot drive and an internal HDD). To not bore everyone with the details, there have been error messages/indications that a disk failure is imminent and I would like to back up everything from both drives to avoid data loss since I have some important stuff on there.

I was thinking I could maybe back up both drives onto a single 4TB HDD. However, I am unsure how feasible that would be as one of the drives has a Windows installation and the other is additional storage. What do you all think the best solution would be? I have important project files on both drives so I’m at a bit of a loss for how to best go about this.

Thanks for reading! :)
