I have a Windows 11 Desktop running a Digital Audio Workstation. I have one external hard drive specific for AUDIO PRODUCTION FILES. But I also use this computer for BUSINESS ITEMS and ARTICLE AUTHORING. What I am looking for is a SECOND EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE that I can use to store all my NON-AUDIO stuff onto - and then I need something like a My Passport to automatically BACK UP this NON-AUDIO External Hard Drive. I’m pretty sure something like this exists - but I have no clue where to look for it. If anyone already has a similar set up please help me out. Happy New Year 2026
I have a Blueendless USB enclosure that can be daisy chained
They are not very costly
You don’t need special enclosures or daisy chaining. On Windows 11, just use a second external drive for your non-audio files, then connect a third drive like a WD My Passport and turn on Windows File History. File History will automatically back up that non-audio external drive on a schedule and lets you restore individual files if needed. It’s built into Windows, reliable, and set-and-forget once enabled.
