Hey @Harry11, thanks for posting your question to the Dropbox Community.

 

If you're on a Windows computer, you should be able to choose which drive you'd like to set up Dropbox on, during the installation process, using the "advanced settings" option.

 

However, you can only back up your desktop, downloads and documents folders, which are by default on your C drive.

 

You can read more info about our backup feature here.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions.
