Use something like WizTree or WinDirStat, which will help you visualize the data on your disk, and hopefully locate your critical files. You’ve got no choice other than to grind it out and get your shit organized.
Once done, migrate your newly organized files onto a new disk. Unless you want to play with weird drivers, I’d recommend you format the new disk as ExFat to maximize compatibility between Linux and Windows.
I understand the importance of backups and regularly practice doing so, even if not to the fullest extent.
File history is not a backup, and certainly not a backup strategy. If your data truly is critical, which given your lengthy post explaining how far you’re going towards not backing up your data, look at 3-2-1, then reassess how critical your data is. At a minimum, you should have an offline copy on another disk, and not just a volume shadow copy.

If you’ve ever connected a laptop or PC to a television as a monitor, the benefit of 4K for text readability is incredibly apparent.
If this isn’t your use case, and you’re not right up against your screen, 1080p is more than good enough; not like most content is coming down on 4K unless you’re paying extra, anyways.
0·7 months agoThey haven’t updated their wikis for Operating Costs or Hosting since late 2022, somewhat aligned with their blog post on handling the mass influx of users from “E-day”.
Back then this was 6 AMD 5950 16/32 with 128GB of RAM and 2x3.84TB SSDs, with one “storage provider” with an AMD epyc 32/64 with 400GB of RAM and 10TB of storage.
Their hosting provider doesn’t offer these same SKUs, but roughly equivalent could be about €200/mo for each of the former, and the beefiest high RAM option is like €800/mo, totalling €2K/mo?
Curious how much the infrastructure has grown, but I haven’t seen anything else. Even so, these costs are extremely high.

They have $3.6B in free cash flow. This is just a decrease from last year, which was a record, to this year, a year in which new car sales outside of China are massively down everywhere.
Users annoyed; do nothing.

5·1 year agoVMware did certain enterprise things very well, eg, when you are maintaining multiple data centers and thousands of images.
Specifically, lifecycle management, target state configuration, failover/HA, virtual networking and storage pools, and more. OpenNebula and proxmox just don’t cut it for this large enterprise use case, unless you have a significant amount of home-grown tooling.
Having just researched this, I purchased the Dynalink AX3600 (DL-WRX36). While it’s not as simple as a drop in firmware reflash, it offered the best speed and performance for not significantly more effort; Wifi 6, USB 3.0 ports, and full MIMO antenna support.
I also considered the following:
- Buffalo WXR-5950AX12
- Linksys E8450 (5GHz ax only)
- Netgear WAX202
- Xiami AX9000
