Backup on volume not mapped

Thread needs solution

Is it possible to backup to an external USB drive without it being mounted with a letter as with a windows server backup?
It would be useful to make the unit invisible in pc resources and to protect it from ransomware attacks
Thank you!

Andrea, welcome to these public User Forums.

Sorry but the answer is no - not for a USB connected drive which would need a drive letter assigned.

See forum topic: How to automatically connect and disconnect an external hard drive before and after a backup - and you will find a link towards the end to a working document & script stored on Google Drive.
