Product: hp probook 430 G5
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello guys  I have a HP Probbook 430 G5 , and I want to make a back up of my files.

I want the back up to be automatically updated when I change something and not manually.

I bought today a seagate 1TB Expansion (portable) external disk with a built in software.

Should I use that software , the hp backup software (I do not know the exact name) or the windows Back up software?

 

Thank you alot

Welcome to the forum @veteriarian

 

It would depend on what you need???

 

A backup of just your files???

 

Will there be more than 1 user???

 

Do you want Daily backups of only ( Changed ) files??? " Incremental Backup "

 

Would you like to have a Weekly Backup " A full system Backup "

 

It just depends on what you want,
