Can I backup my hard drive to two drives using full+incremental for both

Thread needs solution

I am currently using Acronis True Image Home 2011. I am backing up my main computer hard drive to an internal drive as well as a nas drive. I run each as its own backup using full backup with daily differentials. Backups run for the internal in the morning and the nas at night.

Is this scheme ok or will the differentials be off? I wasn't sure how Acronis keeps track of the changes since the last differential. I think VSS is used and was not sure if another snapshot was taken by VSS if the two backup disks would have bad differentials as a result.

My Scheme:
C Drive > Backs up to D drive (Full then differentials)
C Drive > Backs up to Nas Drive (Full then differentials

You are fine. Each task will remain consistent and independent.
