I don’t use that product, but it looks like Acronis has a tutorials section on their website. I would start there: https://www.acronis.com/en-us/tutorials/

(I’m using a Drobo, so not too worried about it, and I do have backups on a spread of other drives, but that obviously isn’t ideal). My question has to do with what to do if the first drive can’t be used: Do you just change the name of the second drive to what the first one was and LR will just continue on as if nothing has changed? If not, what’s the recovery method?

That would mean that if I start working or adding new pictures in the Photo Backup 2 drive (instead of the Photo Backup 1), I could mirror the two drives again by cloning whatever I did to the Photo Backup 2 Into the Photo Backup 1?

I created a backup task so every time I connect the external harddrive to the USB port of my NAS, it automatically starts syncing the new data (photos) to the NAS. No need to press a button or anything else.
The NAS itself is then backed up to a second storage onsite and also backed up to a NAS I have seated with my parents as off-site backup. So I always have at least 3 copy’s of my photos.
