    Is it possible to back up to more than one drive?

    I use Paragon Backup & Recovery 2014. Is it possible to back up my laptop's hard drive to two external hard drives? The laptop hard drive is 600GB in size; the external hard drives are only 400GB each.

    Is the 600GB full? Due to compression, images are about 75% of the source size. You have to do the math.

    The 600GB drive is full. Even with maximum compression, it will not fit on one of the 400GB drives. So I must archive it to TWO drives, but Paragon will only allow me to write to one of them, not both. Unless there is another way? I do not wish to buy a 1TB drive, which would solve the problem, as it's expensive. I would like to use the two smaller 400GB drives because it is cheaper.

    I believe somebody else the same question and the answer was, no way to do that.
