<\/p>\n\r
•<\/span>External USB hard drives. These are hard drives in an enclosure that you attach to your PC with a USB cable. <\/span><\/p> <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>USB Flash drives. These are also known as USB Thumb Drives. About the size of a keyfob they plug into a USB socket.<\/p> <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Removable hard drives. These hard drives are in an enclosure that can be removed from the computer by unlocking a door.<\/p> <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Internal hard drives. These are the hard drives inside your machine.<\/p> <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Network hard drives. These are hard drives on other machines on the network your computer is attached to. <\/p> <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r Typically you\'ll want to backup to an external USB hard drive or a USB flash drive because these can easily be disconnected from your PC. <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r Removable hard drives are not so common and more likely to be found in a business environment. Similarly, networked hard drives are more likely to be found at work.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/span><\/p>\n\r <\/span><\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r •<\/span>External USB hard drive<\/span> choose from available external USB hard drives <\/span><\/p> <\/span><\/p>\n\r •<\/span>USB Flash drive<\/span> choose from available external USB flash drives <\/span><\/p> <\/span><\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Removable hard drive<\/span> choose from available removable hard drives <\/span><\/p> <\/span><\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Internal hard drive<\/span> choose from available internal hard drives <\/span><\/p> <\/span><\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Network hard drive<\/span> choose from available network hard drives <\/span><\/p> <\/span><\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Directory<\/span> type the path to the backup device and directory <\/span><\/p> <\/span><\/p>\n\r •<\/span>Browse...<\/span> select the path to the backup device and directory <\/span><\/p> <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r Once you\'ve chosen your backup device, you need to specify which directory on that device the backup will be stored in.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r You can type the backup directory or use a file browser to choose it by clicking Browse...<\/span>.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r The first time you display this dialog no devices will be selected by default.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r If you\'ve already configured a backup device and backup location the dialog will display the selected configuration.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r If the backup device you previously used is not connected when you open this dialog, then no selection will be made.<\/p>\n\r <\/p>\n\r"
