I am leary of using c: for the sql backup directory, because depending on what your backup maintenance plan is and how long you may need to keep backups and the number of databases you may end up with, that could eventually take up all/too much space on the c: drive where the OS is and that causes the worst problems. I have seen this happen when not monitored properly.
