I have one 1TB USB 3.0 portable hard drive. I have 3 laptops on 2 pcs, can I use one hard drive to back up all 5 computers? Or do I need 5 separate hard drives? Thank you for your attention.

Answer
Providing you have sufficient space then no problem. You can do it without partitioning the drive by making five folders. One for each computers backup.
