Rotating USB Hard Disks

Thread needs solution

I have a client who just purchased Acronis Small Office. I like the program so far, but this client uses two USB hard drives, rotated once a week with the not currently in use drive being taken off site. Their Internet connection is less than 1Mb/s, so sending their full backup to the cloud would take days.

So far, however I have had no luck getting the rotation to work. Once I swap drives, even though they are both mounted as E:\, Acronis can't find the old drive and errors out. I have been able to do this with Acronis Server 11.5 by using Simplified Naming, and doing cleanup myself. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do to make this work in ASO:SCB.
