I'm attempting to create two profiles for two different USB drives where one drive will be used for the ODD week and the other will be used for the EVEN week. I've labeled the drives WD-Y-ODD-4TB and WD-Z-EVEN-4TB. I created two identical profiles, one for each drive and set the setting Profile Setup > When > Insert > checked "Run this profile when:" and set the value for "a disk with the label to "WD-Y-ODD-4TB" for one profile and for the other I set the value to WD-Z-EVEN-4TB.
For each profile for my test, I also checked the When > Changes > "Run this profile when any files or directories are changed on Source".
Also as part of the test, I'm backing up my Documents folder (R:\Libraries\Documents).
Initially, I connected both drives, ran both profiles, disconnected one drive made a change and saved a document. Both profiles attempt to run. The disconnected drive produces a "Scan Failure". I was under the impression that because of the setting "Run this profile when: a disk with the label to "WD-Y-ODD-4TB" was set the profile would not run if the drive was disconnected. Have I done something wrong?

Re: Setting Run this profile when a disk with the label
I think I found a solution buried in a location that seems wrong to me.
Open a profile > Copy/Delete > Advanced > check the option (5th from the bottom) "Silently fail if Destination cannot be reached through the network, drive does not exist, or there is no disk in the drive"
When I selected this option and the profile attempts to run it fails and does not produce any message which is great for me and I can live with the strangeness.
