Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but anyway

I just have an old ass USB stick that I want to back up everything from. The filesystem, partitions, autostart stuff, whatever metadata or whatever is on the USB, the firmware (IDK, just everything, sorry I'm stupid LMAO). Would WinDiskImager32 do the job? Thanks.
