good point, and normally not inserted unless I know I've loaded new
content that I want to save and I use the last USB port on the front of
this tower to recharge my wireless ear pods :)

I'd suggest to remove the stick. And insert it only when doing backup.
Reason: cyber resiliency. Ransomware could destroy content of both
your primary HDD/SSD and backup device.
And it's worth to have two (or more) devices. And round robin.
I did it.
My backup space is IMHO huge - approx. 70GB. So I use regular HDD in
external case, USB attached.
However incremental backup takes approx. 4-5 minutes. Yes, I have a
lot of pictures, PDFs, etc. But I do not modify majority of these
pictures. The most of time spent for backup is checking directiories
against content change. (Of course it's scripted).
