+### If the backup disk is different from the installation disk:
 
-Copy UUID your disk
+Copy the UUID of your external disk:
 
     sudo blkid
 
-Editing disks mount points file
+Edit the mount points file:
 
     sudo nano /etc/fstab
 
-Replace backup external disk UUID and mount point for you configuration
+
+Replace the disk `UUID` and `mount point` (default is "/backup-disk") with your configuration:
 ```
-# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
-#
-# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
-# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
-# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
-#
-# systemd generates mount units based on this file, see systemd.mount(5).
-# Please run 'systemctl daemon-reload' after making changes here.
