    How do I tell WHS 2011 to use a specific hard disk for a client backup? My server uses the smallest hard disk and the backup’s fail due to the space deficit.

    I have a 250 Gb with the system files (c: & f:) (small drive) and 1.5TB (e:) not used by server.

    It's controlled in the Dashboard. All Shared Folders including Client Computer Backups can be moved to where you want them by running the Move Folder Wizard which appears on the right in the Server Folders tab of Server Folders and Hard Drives after you select the folder to be moved.

    I'll note in passing that you can learn how to do this (and much more) by reading the online help for Windows Home Server...

    I'm not on the WHS team, I just post a lot. :)

    I don’t see how to specify a specific disk for each backup. Do all backup’s go to the same folder.

    WHS v1 was convenient with DE.

    All backups go to a single folder.

    Same folder as it creates a composite database to save space - no need to back up the same Windows file multiple times.
