 If you want to call this a "Backup" feature you must let us tell it what files / folders to back up and where the files / folders are located!!  Instead, you are telling us we can only back up three folders (Documents, Downloads, and Desktop) and that they must be on the C: drive!!  Really?  Do you people at Dropbox keep all your data in just those 3 folders on your C: drives?  I don't think so.  

You need  to get this fixed soon or I won't continue paying for 2 TB of storage that I can't use. 

Come on guys, you can do better!

 

FYI:  This same idea is being recommended under the title "Allow Automatic Backup from Alternate Locations".
