You can buy (or get) cheap 1tb ssds or bigger 2tb hdds for sub 100€ where I am from.
Pairing that with extreme conpression from veeam, not installing all programs in C:\ (or whatever system directory for linux) and either doing volume or file level backups should give you plenty of space to do those.
Linux its just / then from there you can mount other drives at whatever directory you want
I know root / exists but I didn’t know a good analog to C:. Thank you though as some other members might not know it yet :)
But also 100€ ain’t all too cheap for some of us
Certainly. But nowadays even reputable brands bring out >1TB SSD/HDDs for little money.
They should suffice for backup purposes.
If the money is that tight when even a dedicated drive + backupsoftware won’t fit then you can only bridge the time until then with a USB drive or something else with a high enough capacity.
And any (working) backup is better than none.
