You can run the profile manually or schedule it to run automatically to backup selected drives to an external drive. SyncBack Touch (not available in SyncBackFree) SyncBackPro and SyncBackSE can access multiple disks (or volumes) on your Windows or Mac computer through SyncBack Touch. So, you can use a single SyncBack Touch profile to backup several drives on your computer. Backup Multiple Drives Using SyncBack Touch For this example, we will create a backup profile and use SyncBack Touch as the profile’s source to backup all drives on a Windows computer to an external drive. 1. Install SyncBack Touch on the Windows computer you want to backup, and make sure it is running. Then install SyncBackPro or SyncBackSE on the same or a different Windows computer. 2. Run SyncBackPro or SyncBackSE and click on the New button to create a new backup profile. On the third screen of the wizard (where you select the source and destination), change the source to SyncBack Touch and then click Next. 3. On the SyncBack Touch connection details page, click the magnifying glass button and select the appropriate device from the drop-down list. If the device cannot be found, or you are accessing it via the Internet, you can manually enter the hostname or I.P. address of the device and untick the option Find and connect to the SyncBack Touch device using its name. 4. If SyncBack Touch is configured to verify usernames and passwords with an SBMS server, or Touch is installed with user impersonation, then enter the username and password. By default, no username and password are required by SyncBack Touch. Next, click the Test button to test the connection with SyncBack Touch. 5. If the connection is successful, click the Done button. If you have problems, refer to our Configuring SyncBack Touch to backup files over the Internet article. The help file also includes a section on connection problems. 6. In the Profile Setup window, configure the destination path to a folder on the external drive (where you want to backup your files). 7. To backup only important files (e.g. files created by you) from each drive, click the Choose sub-directories and files button, untick the root to deselect everything below it, and then select the files/folders to backup from each drive. Save the settings. Finally, run the profile manually or schedule it to run automatically. Note: SyncBack Touch is free

With SyncBackPro V10 or SyncBackSE V10 (or newer versions). All Volumes Path (introduced in SyncBack V11) When SyncBack V11 was released in July 2023, it introduced the special All Volumes Path \\?\. If you use this path as your source (it can also be a destination) then you can access all the volumes on your computer, including those that do not have a drive letter assigned to them. It's very simple to use: Create a new backup profile. The destination (where you are copying the files to) can be wherever you wish, e.g. the cloud. Set the Source to \\?\ Click the Choose sub-directories and files button. You'll see all the volumes on your system. Choose the volumes, folders and files you want to copy. The help file has more details. The All Volumes Path is available in SyncBackFree, SyncBackSE and SyncBackPro. Important Points to Note - When backing multiple drives, you should ensure that the storage capacity of the backup drive is larger than the total amount of data you are backing up. - SyncBack supports backing up files and folders that are created by you (or that you have access to) on your computer. Therefore, you should identify the important files to backup (for example, user’s documents, videos and pictures) and include them in your profile selections under Modify > Simple > Choose sub-directories and files settings page. Conclusion In this article, you learned how to use SyncBack Touch and the AllDrives script to backup multiple drives at once. With these options, you can backup the data on all your computer's drives and protect yourself from data loss.

Is this feature only available in newer versions, or only in the Pro version? I think there is supposed to be some Expert/Network setting but I don't see it.Thanks.
