title: backup sql server database into a flashdrive
body: <p>I've seen and read tutorials on how to back up sql server database in a C drive but I haven't seen or read how to fully back up a database into a flash drive. I tried doing it the way I back up a database in my computer or other computer that has sql server management studio but I guess it's not the same. 
  When I try to do the back up in my flash drive I get this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Backup failed for Server <strong>servername</strong>.
    (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoExtended)". It has additional information like
    <strong>The volume on the device `G:\Backup\mybackup is  not part of the
    media set that is currently being processed</strong>. Ensure that the backup
    device are loaded with the correct media".</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Is it gonna be the same way when I restore my backed up database from the flash drive to a different PC that has sql management.</p>
  
  <p>This is what I've done -- (My flashdrive is in G:)</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Created a folder in my flashdrive and named it as Backup</li>
  <li>In Sql Management, I right clicked and chose task -> Backup..</li>
  <li>Database: -> MyDatabase | Backup type: FULL</li>
  <li>In Backup set portion, Management auto generates the Name: Mydatabase-Full Database Backup | Decription: 'blank'</li>
  <li>In Destination part, Radio button Disk is enabled and selected(default) Tape is disabled. I chose the button add and I got to Select Backup Destination</li>
  <li>In the Backup destination window, in the Destinations on disk, radio button file name is enabled and checked backup device is disabled. I clicked the elipsis, navigated to the G: drive and into my folder backup and input the filename.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
