    Hey gang :)
    I just bought an 8tb external drive and was wondering which software is recommended for backup purposes. I want to backup my C: drive and what's on it in case of a disaster along with any other folders from other drives. I usually just backup to other drives but I wanted to try something else as well. Any recommendations are appreciated. I'm a noob when it comes to this kind of software other than stuff like Genie and rollbackRX.
    Thank you :)

    Also remember there is no magic solution and by the way, at best
    you should divide your 8tb disk in at least 2 partions.... Cheers;)

    Ps. No Software in HIDE links.... Just youtube infos.....

    My two cents opinion: IT knowledge can be complicated for non-techies....
