Looking at the above, the issue here looks to be with your J: drive or the connection to that drive, where Acronis is not able to complete writing the backup image to the drive because of a timeout error. This could be because of your Power Options having such as USB Selective Suspend enabled, or a drive power issue etc.
What type of drive is your J: drive, how is it connected to the computer, does it have its own power supply, or is it powered from the USB port, what USB standard is involved here, i.e. 2.0 or 3.0?

If it is a USB drive that the backup is being made, the problem could be due to insufficient power getting to the drive - it is always best to attach drives to a port on the backplate; for reasons I do not understand, USB ports that are attached to headers on the main board can be problematic. I have noticed this more with USB 3.X ports than I have with USB 2 ports. As suggested above also check the power settings for the drive.
