Backup of entire PC and external hard drive

Thread needs solution

Hello,

I am using Acronis True Image 2020 version. I was using backup of "Entire PC" to an external hard drive. With the time internal storage of my computer got full and to make same space in internal storage I moved data to another hard drive. Now my question is:

Can I or how can I make the backup of "PC+External hard drive" to the already used drive?

 

Thanks in advance!

Muhammad, welcome to these public User Forums.

To add another drive to your backup task, click on the Source panel for that task, then select the second drive.

Personally, I find it easier to have separate backup tasks for individual drives, then these can have different backup schedules if the rate of change is different for each drive.

This is how I work. Have one set of tasks for backing up the SSD on which the OS is located; for other SSD/HDDs I use partition based backups rather than drive based backups as the content tends to change with different frequency.
