Moving OS Backup to Different Location

$

Hello,

 

When I setup my Windows Server Essentials R2 server last year, I took a complete image using Server Backup on an external drive. I am trying to take another backup on the same drive but it gives me the following warning:

 

You selected a hard drive that might be divided into one or more logical drives. When you finish this wizard, the server will reformat the following hard drives:

Seagate.....
Drives: E

If you continue, all existing data will be deleted. Do you want to continue?


I want to keep my gold backup from last year so I tried to copy that folder by creating a folder in Server Folders. To test if this would work in case I needed to restore from it, I tried to restore some files to check if the OS would read this location but it wouldn't show up. How can I make sure that I keep my backup from last year and then use the external drive to setup a regular server backup?

I have posted this on another forum that I typically visit for these of questions but haven't gotten a clear answer so I am hoping someone can help here.

 

Thanks

A Z
