Stop certain drives from being backed up

Thread needs solution

For reasons of saving time and backup disc space I want to prevent True Image backing up two drives on my computer which are infrequently accessed. I have 4 drives in total. If we call one of them Drive H what is the command to exclude it from the backup. I have used H:/*.* but that does not seem to work.

The way to do this is when creating the backup task, use the "Disk and Partition" option (this may be shown as the sourse but sometimes it shows "Entire PC" or a particular disk drive. If it is not showing "Disks and partitions" click on the icon and you should get a full listing of backup task types, select "Disk and Partition" and select the Disks and partitions to be included. 

Hope this helps ...
