Error backup job BackupHDD: destination cannot be accessed

Attempting incremental backup using USB Harddrive; previously have done both a full backup and an incremental.  I can view all the files on the backup drive just fine but when I attempt to run the backup, I get the error message: Error backup job BackupHDD: destination cannot be accessed.  Searched community answers and couldn't find anything relevant.  (I have the most recent firmware installed.)  Help!

Is your backup job configured to back up to a USB port or a USB share? If the latter, does the destination USB share match the connected drive USB share?

I actually did not completely understand what you were telling me but decided to set up another backup job to make sure I selected everything right.  Once I did that, it worked fine. The "new" backup job is identical to the "old" one so I see no reason why it would work but it didn.
