Outside my depth but I’ll give it a stab. Identify what data is important, (is the full 42Tb needed?). Can the data be split into easier to handle chunks?

Plus the desire to fulfill it.

Two drives is a good thing. Always have a copy at a remote location and swap it out rather than shuttling the one drive back and forth.

I agree. I’ve has to scrap and force upgrade multiple devices over the years, solely due to the battery dying quickly. Definitely a built in obsolescence built into the industry that needs to be fixed.
