new Maxtor can only b/u MyDocs or C:drive?

I have just installed a Maxtor OneTouch4 , 250GB backup drive.
When choosing directories to auto backup, I appear only to be able to select
-MyDocs (I have selected only this folder)
-Desktop and
-C:\

and when I expand C:\ I only see the folder, Intel, with a subfolder Logs.

To backup my Outlook email without backing up all of C:\ drive, I have had to setup a folder in MyDocs and copy the Outlook.pst and Archive.pst files across.

I was hoping to go to the Maxtor- Edit Backup Settings screen and browse and select path
C:\Documents & Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder which contains the .pst email files.

Any ideas, or do I have to copy across my email Outlook.pst files everytime I want them backed up?
