Many of my clients were introduced to external hard drives for backup.
Most of them have a common problem where sometimes the backup fails
because quite randomly. Usually it's because for some reason it run
much slower than normally and the person responsible for swapping the
drives does their job and so the log says " x is not a valid drive".
Now I'm suspecting that it has something to do with SQL Writer Service
although I'm not sure how to prove it and the less how to fix it. SQL
is running a couple of databases among others Monitoring and Panda
anti virus. I have no experience in SQL management so I can't really
figure out what happens exactly. Any help would be much appreciated.
BTW I tried SQL forum but no solution from there.

Apparently there are some updates for VSS services. I'll have to test
it.
