Hey there, ananas123​, let's see what we can find about this! 

You can view and manage your Backups both online, and while using the Dropbox desktop app by following these steps:

  • Go to https://www.dropbox.com and sign in. 
  • Click the grid icon in the left sidebar and choose “Backup.”
  • Or go directly to https://www.dropbox.com/backup/all to see all your device and external drive backups, including folders named with your drive’s label.

In the desktop app:

  • Click the Dropbox icon in your menu bar and then access your preferences as shown here.
  • Visit your Backup page, and select the entry labeled with your external drive’s name to view its backed-up folders and their sync status.

If you're still not able to see your Backup menu, please feel free to send me a screenshot of what it looks like on your end, in order for me to have a visual.

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
