I have three 1TB USB hard drives for backup. I doubt I'll ever use that much space.
Yeah that sounds good I have a lenovo laptop 12th generation intel, I put more ram in it (only certain type of ram you can put in it) (there is a strange thing about ram I solved the problem for others on Lenovo forum). And got a 2tb 2.5 inch sata drive. It had the bracket in there but not the cable so off ebay this chinese guy sent me a cable for like $12 delivered I got it in 4 days speedpack china. Lenovo wanted $60 and make me wait 6 weeks. Never lenovo again only toshiba or asus. Is yours in a case/box? what is your mobo processor? Ive got a 2tb external drive for my box but I think they may die one day so I think backup online could be better.
