We just replaced &nbsp;our old server with a new windows 2012 server. &nbsp;We have 3 drives: c (raid 1), e (raid 5) and f(raid 5). &nbsp;We need to implement a new backup plan (full and incremental). &nbsp;However, for the moment, we want to put the backup ( ideally full and incremental) in the f drive. We have more than enough space for this. We are new to 2012 server. Is it a problem to store the backup on a local drive? If possible please provide some backup steps to accomplish this.
