setting up/converting windows 11-> ubuntu

[bruce]

Hi.

Looking for ideas/opinions. I'm getting a HP amd ryzen 5, with 128G
ssd, and a 1tb usd extern drive. The goal is to have ubuntu/OS on the
128 SSD, and the rest of the data/dev processes/etc on the 1TB extern
drive.

At the same time, I'm going to be setting up a backup process for the
SSD/hard drive. The backup process will be every X days.

So, any thoughts/pointers on what the process could/should be?

I'm seeing various sites, with diff opinions, so thought I'd post here
for input as well.

thanks
