Can I backup my My Book, with a My Book?

Hi there,

I have 2 My Book hard drives. MyBook_A is used like a normal HDD, with files manually moved about. Can I back it up to the MyBook_B?  

SmartWare does not allow me to choose files from it, and wants it to be a backup drive only.

I have erased the drive and also formatted it.  Please help!

Hello,

What you are trying to do, it’s possible with the WD Smartware Pro.  that will allow you to backup drive A to drive B.

If you would like to test that, you can download a 30 days trial version from the WD Store website or the link below.
