Can I ask what your computer is, in particulate the size of the HDD or SSD? I¡¯m surprised that your phone would be too large, given that most storage in an iPhone is used by media (music*, photos, etc.) synced ¡°from¡± a computer.

*My iPhone Xs is 512 GB and ~400 of that is music synced from iTunes.

Is there a straight forward way to back up an iPhone toan external drive using time machine?

I found some ways on browser search but found them complicated.

I was backing it up to older computer using iTunes but all of a sudden I think my hard drive on that machine died. It makes noises when I try to open it but screen is blank.

My phone is too large to back up to my computer or my current 5g cloud.
