I've setup my Win Server 2019 to do a backup to multiple drives (two USB-connected drives, and one internal drive). When it runs it only writes the backup to one of the drives, but not the other two.

    Hi Modern,

    Thanks for your post. Generally speaking, there is no way to make Windows Backup span volumes – not that I’m aware of. Please make sure you are followed the official backup steps for Windows Server Backup.
