when people say backups do they mean copying the entire thing i want to backup on another disk?

This is the software I use. It's pretty good, simple and easy to use IMO. https://www.karenware.com/powertools/karens-replicator-backup-utility

looks like it just copies directories, i can do that myself but i'd need additional hard drives for that ヽ(´ー｀)ノ
the stuff i want to back up is currently 1,2tb (no its not cp), maybe someday when i have enough money to buy server-tier storage i will back it up and maybe even torrent it

>Kitty is concerned about the contents of your hard drives
who said you could look at my cp!?

1.2TB isn't much but I dunno what country you're in
a 2TB disk is a fairly cheap purchase in the US, but I assume disk prices suck ass elsewhere

i get used 16tb drives for some 180 usd and they never die

if I had a NAS, I'd buy cheap used drives and set it up RAID 1 -- if one dies, it's easy to replace
