Backup Times

I have a My Book Essential.  I can’t figure out how to set my daily backups for a paricular time.  How is it done?  

dothib,

Once you have installed WD SmartWare 2.x from WD’s main support site, the option to set scheduled backups will become available in the “Backup” tab as a new option listed as “Change Backup Frequency”.
