Back up drives

Ì bought a new Mac and have 2 external hard drives(installed with my old Mac) and now I've added a new external USB3 hard drive.
I will eliminate one of the old hard drives.
I hear them going in the background and would like to change my backup vault to the new USB HD as the primary backup drive for 1P.
With the newest update, I was looking to find each of my backup drives listed and can't find it.
How do I simply change to a Primary backup and choose one of the other drives,
I couldn't find a simple answer in the new Sync choice in the prefs.
Thanks!

    Hi @irad,

    It's not possible to change the backup location in 1Password 5.

    The backups are always located at:

    ~/Library/Application Support/1Password 4/Backups/ (AgileBits website version)

    ~/Library/Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.agilebits.onepassword-osx-helper/Data/Library/Backups/ (Mac App Store version)

    If you're using Time Machine or another backup solution to create backups on your external hard drive, and you include the ~/Library folder, your 1Password backups files will be stored on the external hard drive as well.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions. We're always happy to help!
