I am backing up all my files (FINALLY! And they are organized!) and I am wondering if it is a good idea to transfer the backups I loaded onto a USB, onto an external drive. I don’t want to corrupt any files from transferring from USB. I probably should’ve put them on the external drive first, and then put them on the USB. I want to have the backups stored on both storages. It’s taking forever (of course) to transfer from my hard drive onto the USB, and I’d expect the same transferring onto the external drive, it would just be easier to select everything in the USB and move it over as opposed to finding all the folders again. Also, would it take the same amount of time to transfer from USB to external drive as it would from hard drive to external drive? Thank you!!!
