OK ill make this question short and please anyone whom answers make it a simple yes no answer and with what software.
I have 3 2TB storage drives. My main C: Drive is on a New SSD, then I store my personal files etc on a second New SSD. and finally I have an older HDD with nothing on it. Can I backup Windows onto the older HDD and would I be able to restore with that backup to my C: drive if needed? I don't want to buy a new SSD to replace the older HDD because I just cant afford it at the moment. I was using EaseUs Backup pro and placing my backups on the older HDD but I havent needed to restore a backup yet. Only reason I am backing up internally is because well one I can and two I dont have an external drive and cant afford one right now.
