When I tried backup catalog in PSE 13 I pointed the backup, to a folder, on a memory stick with 26GB free space I get the message:-
"Based on the capacity of the media you have inserted it is estimated that this backup will require 15 disks. Would you like to continue"
I guess that it thinks it has read a DVD drive?
Anyway running to see what happens.

PSE may be correct. The Backup creates a copy of your current catalog and all your pictures referenced in the catalog.

Yes so I see, but I wonder why it did not just say it needs *GB and the drive specified has only *GB instead of saying 15 disks; I may not want to backup to disks but given the necessary GB I will find the necessary media.

I think the reason is that it is that you could use multiple USBs vs. an EHD. I only use an EHD, I have found disks etc. very unreliable when using as a backup.
