Change Default Client Backup Destination Folder?

Question

Sign in to vote

By default, Windows Server Essentials 2012 saves the backups for all client machines to a folder on the server. We would prefer to store the client backups on a large USB drive that is connected to the server. What is the best way to accomplish this destination device/folder change?

Thanks very much.
