Backup to internal hard drive

Thread needs solution

Can I create backups to a second, separate, internal hard drive (E:/) with Acronis Cyber Protect?  I've done this for years with Acronis stand-alone products (such as Acronis 2020), but I'm told Cyber Protect won't create backups to an internal hard drive (or recover from an internal hard drive).

Bernie, I don't know where you told the above but it is definitely not true!  You can create backups to any available drive provided it has sufficient free space and is not included in the Source selection for the task, and you can recover from the same.

So using your information, you can make a Disks & Partitions backup of your C: drive and select the destination to be your E: drive.  What you cannot do is to make an 'Entire PC' backup to the E: drive because it would already include E: along with all other internal drives!
