Dropbox StaffHey rymanbugs, thanks for posting to the Dropbox Community today.
At the moment, there's no direct way to back up the contents of your Dropbox to your external drive.
With the new Dropbox for macOS app, the Dropbox folder is saved to ~/Library/CloudStorage and cannot be moved somewhere else.
If you don't have the space to make all your files available offline, to copy them to your external drive, a workaround would be to download your files in batches from the website and then move them there.
You can also use selective sync, to choose which folders to sync, make them available offline and then copy them to your external drive.
I hope this helps, but let me know if you have any questions.
I have the same issue. Any resolutions yet?
no - still waiting. may have to try another service.
