    I have a Win 10 system with a solid state drive and a large (1 Ter.) conventional drive. What is the best and easiest way to back up this machine.

    As always, thanks for you help

    Is the SSD a separate drive or part of a hybrid drive (like a Seagate with an 8 GB — 128 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD)?

    Do you have only the OS on the SSD and programs and other files on the HDD?

    The best and easiest way to back up is to create an image of the drive(s). I, personally, use AOMEI Backupper for this purpose (available from MajorGeeks). It has the simplest interface and the highest compression ratio (chose High Compression in the settings) for space saving on your back up drive.
