Can I send a complete drive from my tower pc to a notepad

Would I have to send each file on the drive one by one or can it be done by moving a complete drive somehow.

Most of the time you can remove the drive from a tower PC and connect it to a USB port on another computer using an adapter like this one: https://smile.amazon.com/UGREEN-Adap...70_&dpSrc=srch

Get an external hard drive or large-capacity USB stick. That way you can not only transfer and sync, but you'll have a detached backup. Better to spend a few dollars than lose files that you value.
