    Can I back up a HDD and a SSD using the same external hard drive by partitioning the drive? I have a 128 GB SSD and a 500 TB HDD and want to back up both using a 1 TB external hard drive.

    Hello,

    I'd ask in the Windows forum on Microsoft Community.

    Yes, Should be fine. What are you using for backup, Windows? What version?

    I also assume that the second partition is 500GB and not TB, otherwise the answer would be no :)

    Hello,

    The Windows Desktop Perfmon and Diagnostic tools forum is to discuss performance monitor (perfmon), resource monitor (resmon), and task manager, focusing on HOW-TO, Errors/Problems, and usage scenarios.

    As the question is off topic here, I am moving it to the Where is the Forum... forum.
