Goodmorning, I have the necessity to do a backup of my Mac, however I don't have any external hard disk with enough space for all the data, but I have a "windows" hard disk with enough space to contain the data of a "MacOs" hard disk. Is there any way I can put all the things in the windows one in order to use the other for the backup? I tried to to that but on mac I can't import files on the windows one and viceversa on windows.

If this Windows drive is formatted as NTFS then you need third party software for mac to r/w

Paragon or tuxera

" necessity to do a backup of my Mac " as in Time Machine Backup ?

A Time Machine Backup  is very useful  but do read the types of drives involved.
