Global Delete Switch across multiple devices

Hello,
I just backed up our 20 terra account to a large external hard drive. As I was explained by dropbox, possibly because of a hard disc disconnection issue, dropbox started deleting randomly across all devices of the 20tb account. I understand that this happens more likely if the dropbox folder is pointed to a external hard drive. But this could also happen on a computer and its d drive which has a failer. This is a big problem! If there was a global switch where deletion could be disabled for a temporary backup session, that would be great!!! Thanks
