I was thinking that I could schedule a backup job to our storage server during the middle of the day....and was thinking about using the backup to disk option.

Is this possible for regular files, or does it have to be exchange, or sharepoint only?

I tried to go through the wizard to create the "backup to disk folder" but since its on a different machine, it failed, said it didn't have rights to create the folder.  I added a new user (adminstrator account) to backup exec, and it still failed.....

Any ideas on what I might be doing incorrectly?

Thanks
