Hi Alex,
This is a great add-in, but I have the following problem:

I have 2 external disks that I use to backup my WHS BDBB databases, called A and B. I keep them both off-site, and bring them in alternately to make the backups (one week I use A, next week B, next week A etc).

As the backups are so big, I have to delete the previous backup before I can make a new one.

However, when I connect a disk to the WHS and start the WHS BDBB add-in, it shows the name of the last backup I made (which is on the other disk), not the name of the backup on the disk I have just plugged in, if you follow me.

Eg. I have just plugged in Disk B, but the add-in is showing me the name of the backup I made last week on Disk A.

When I try to delete the backup I get the following error message:

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find part of the path 'E:BDBB\2011_09_20' (+ a lot more that I'm not going to copy here!).

Is there a way to get round this please?

Many thanks

That's a known bug that usually occurs when two drives have the same name. In the current release I added some caching that was intended to make BDBB perform better when many drives are in the server. You can work around it by resetting the Home Server Console when you swap your drives.
