I don't know of any specific guide to point you to.
All I do is take my important stuff and burn it to disc a couple times each year.
@sentientdessert
Those are good as well. I do periodic disk images with Macrium Reflect.
It's equally as important, if not more so, to back up your data in a way that can be accessed independently of your installed operating system.
@voltronic Ok. Thank you. I've done backups occasionally, but it's a complete drive clone.
