Moving your backup destination
You can change the backup destination for your recovery points and move your
existing recovery points to a new location. For example, suppose you install an
external hard drive for storing your backup data. You can then change the backup
destination for one or more backups to the new drive.
When you select a new location, you can also choose to move the existing recovery
points to the new destination. All future recovery points for the backups that you
select are created at the new location.
Note: You can move your backup destination to a new internal or external hard
drive. Make sure that the drive is properly installed or connected before you
proceed.
