Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows • NVMe Enclosure SSD as Backup = Unable to perform entire computer backup to an internal disk

Good morning, my searches have unfortunately yielded no results, so hopefully someone can help.

I'm wanting to use an NVMe SSD USB enclosure as my backup drive. Unfortunately, when I select it in the backup configuration, I get the message "Unable to perform entire computer backup to an internal disk" - now obviously it isn't an internal disk. Is it possible to fix this? Can I bypass this check and have Veeam use it anyway? I did try looking for the config of my job and thought I could edit the config file directly, but unfortunately couldn't find one.

What's strange is that if I run 'Backup to another location' and choose the SSD, the backup works fine, but obviously this will only be a separate full backup.

I have read I can choose a Volume backup instead of Entire computer which would be a workaround, but is not a recommended solution, so I would prefer to get to the root cause of my issue.

Thank you
