How to Sync my second hard drive again to Dropbox

So I've installed Dropbox on the new computer in my office that is replacing the one at the telescope out in California. What I want to sync from that computer is the new image data that will be save in drive E in the SRO Data folder (E:\SRO Data) so what steps do I need to perform to have Dropbox sync those with my home computer on the drive and folder I want that data copied to? In this case the local drive would be (F:\SRO Data). And also keep all the other folders that now exist in my Dropbox account not sync to the remote Telescope computer?

What is likely causing issues if that I've had this Dropbox account maybe 10 years and originally set it up so my home computer was saving other data as well as the remote telescope data. At this point I see no need to continue with the "other" non imaging data from the remote computer. So I propose to make sure all the data that now exists in teh Dropbox account be backed up to one of my local drives and deleted from DB altogether. After that, only new data saved from the remote telescope and saved on it's E drive and the folder Named SRO Data or maybe even anything saved on that drive which would make more sense sync with my home system.
