Need help with back up. 1.5T of data
I have to wipe my pc for windows 11 to be able to install. I have approximately 1.5tb and need some general advice on how to back this data up.
In the past I’ve had copy and paste data fail due to a wide range of error codes that I don’t remember etc (on other machines) and even had tech friends tell me I am copying data wrong (when it takes a long time).
I am a music producer and I am really not technical with PCs at all. I wanted to buy a Mac and my friend said they knew what they were doing and built me this pc which is great but we didn’t change this setting that is required now for windows 11 and why I have to flip the pc. They also poorly partitioned the drives so my operating drive is rammed full, while my other was relatively free space.
Now as a total I have 1.5tb of files.
Is there a simple or secure way to copy these files? Should I go folder for folder? Is there some sort of mode I can put the pc in that makes the process more streamlined or focused on data transfers.
Between my hard drives I should have enough to back it all up twice, which is my goal. Working on a deadline as I use slack for work and slack from may 18th saying I have to be windows 11
Thanks
