You’re assuming that everyone wants to back up their system though. On my gaming PC, I would literally want just this, I couldn’t care less about everything else. For me this would be useful. Would also be nice for my Steam Deck for my GOG games.
Is your work laptop owned by you? That I would definitely understand. Mine is owned by my organization and I want nothing personal on it ever as a result. I like how I can compartmentalize work from entertainment that way.
Almost all my banking is done from my phone. It’s rare I need to sit in front of my PC to do so. But that also doesn’t need backed up, it’s all web accessible. I do download all my bank, credit card, and loan statements monthly, but I store all of that in my Proton Drive, nothing remains on my PC. I call it my gaming PC because that’s what it’s for 90% of the time, but I do use it for personal stuff too. That doesn’t really change the fact that literally nothing needs backed up aside from game saves.

It didn’t occur to me that people would have a dedicated PC only used for gaming lol, that’s an expensive way to do it.
Its pretty common to have a gaming PC and a work laptop.
Oh I do too, just everything is synched between them because I hate working on a laptop for very long.

Yeah it is. How do you manage your personal stuff like banking and everything if not on the PC?

Gotcha, different use cases for sure haha
Yeah, my work laptop is for all my productivity, and it is owned by my work so doesn’t cause extra expense.
