I want to back up my network Z drive, but I don't see the option to

I am currently looking to automatically backup into Dropbox a specific folder (ie. all files saved into my Z drive). 

How can I go about doing this?

Hey @tcdental - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to our Community!

Are you familiar with the Dropbox Backup feature by any chance?

This should help achieve what you had in mind so feel free to take a look and let us know if that would do the trick for you.

Thanks!

Hey Walter,

Thank you for the reply. I've checked the link regarding Dropbox Backup and have a few queries:

1. When I click on the Backups tab, there is no "Set up" option displayed as per the guide.

2. There is a "Manage Backups" option, but when selected, only allows me to backup folders - not Drives.

Please refer to the attached screenshot for more details.

FYI, in case it makes a difference, my OS is Windows 7 Professional.

Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

Is the other drive you'd like to backup to Dropbox an external drive or an internal one @tcdental?

[tcdental]

It is a network drive (Z: Drive) - unsure if this is considered internal or external?

I have the same problem, Dropbox doesn't see the disks but only the desktop folders, images etc. I have two hard drives and I can't even back up both.

@tcdental, it sounds like it may be an internal drive (unless you connect it to your computer via USB). 

@GabrieleNI, are the hard drives you’re referring to internal as well, or external?
