This question should be simple but I can't get a clear answer. I'm getting a new SSD (Samsung) and I heard the specific model can have issues if you don't update the firmware. I have no problem with doing that but I also wanna back them up in case something goes wrong. How do I do that? Do I need to just buy another hard drive or SSD equivalent to the space of my whole computer? That's a lot of money.

Buy a USB 3 HDD and use copy paste. Best and easy. Western digital is very reliable

Hard to give and exact time. Depends on how much data you have to copy over. It would also depend on the speed of the HDD.

If your drives are full could easily be an over night thing.

2 8TB HDDs in my PC, plus a 24TB NAS on my network. Working folders on SSD are synchronized to the NAS locally with Syncthing, and full system backups are scheduled regularly. Select important files are duplicated encrypted on a paid cloud storage service.

For the average person, what would you consider important files to backup?

Your resume or other personal data/textfiles you might need in the future.

I personally save my profile pictures, desktop background etc. basically customization.

Other than that, I don't think you need any backups. Everytime I get a new PC, I basically start from scratch. I never missed my old files, if I need something, I can usually find it on the internet.

Encrypted password database for one. Financial information, current projects I'm working on... Basically, if I were to get a new PC, I could just pull those files down and be up and running with no issues and no real downtime.
