If you just edit the file line 34 in the folder /opt/emoncms/modules/backup/

emoncms/backup/blob/d474916321f9705edadb4230ac8c18dbfc2450ac/usb-import.sh#L34


      
          emoncms_mqtt=$(systemctl show emoncms_mqtt | grep LoadState | cut -d"=" -f2)
          
          echo
          
          disk=false
          # Scan through disks to find 'usb-Generic_Mass-Storage'
          for diskname in 'sda' 'sdb' 'sdc'
            do
            disk_id=$(find /dev/disk/by-id/ -lname "*$diskname")
            if [ $disk_id ]; then
                usb=$(ls $disk_id | grep 'usb-Generic_Mass-Storage')
                if [ $usb ]; then
                    echo "Found: $disk_id at /dev/$diskname"
                    disk="$diskname"
                fi
                usb=$(ls $disk_id | grep 'usb-Mass_Storage_Device')
                if [ $usb ]; then
                    echo "Found: $disk_id at /dev/$diskname"
                    disk="$diskname"
                fi
            fi

to read

usb=$(ls $disk_id | grep ‘usb-Generic’)

it should work.

Just note, you will need to undo this before you are able to update the backup module again.
