    You are a lifesaver. Not a computer savvy person and spent all morning trying to figure this out with videos on TH-cam that explained things I didn’t need to know. Your video was short and concise and actually worked. Going to check back with you in the future if I have any more issues. Well done!!

    watched a few video on how to do this, by far the best one. No pointless chattering that takes up more than half the video before getting to the point, 40 seconds in and the methods start to be shown. Preceise, to the point and straight forward. Also 3 different methods to choose from. Perfect video, why can't all How to videos be like this.
    FYI the 3rd method is probably the best for those who are not sure or confident about clicking stuff you're not use to or worry about deleting stuff you should not. Took me 2 mins if that. Cheers fella. Certainly worthy of more subscribers, and today you earned mine.

    Good video Brian. I only have 1 regular USB drive. It's 4 GB and has a copy of Windows 10 on it. For external storage I have 2 1TB NVMe M.2 drives in external cases plugged into the rear USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports. They're super fast and great for doing daily backups.
