Backup Mapped Network Drives

There are ample hits on Google for the topic "How do I backup mapped drives using WD Smartware [pro].

Please, please, please include backing up from mapped drives.

I am trying to use a My Passport Ultra and WD Smartware Pro v. 2.2.1.

The Passport is connected to and the software is installed on my laptop to which is mapped to another hard drive from a machine on our small business’ network.  The files on that drive are an extension of what I use and produce using the laptop.  When I’m in the office, the files on the mapped drive are the same importance to me as the files on the hard disk inside the laptop.  I’m buying and trying to use the Passport to protect my work, not a machine.  Right now, the Passport and it’s software are not succeeding in that purpose.

Please.

Thank you.
