    Linux its just / then from there you can mount other drives at whatever directory you want

    But also 100€ ain’t all too cheap for some of us

      I know root / exists but I didn’t know a good analog to C:. Thank you though as some other members might not know it yet :)

      Certainly. But nowadays even reputable brands bring out >1TB SSD/HDDs for little money.
      They should suffice for backup purposes.
      If the money is that tight when even a dedicated drive + backupsoftware won’t fit then you can only bridge the time until then with a USB drive or something else with a high enough capacity.
      And any (working) backup is better than none.
