Default Question about backups with Ghost

No. It is not possible.
First of all you schedule your "backup" nightly, so when you decide to swap
them, it is not the same time as you "left off your C drive".
Secondly, your D drive must be invisible to OS when C drive is active, yet
be able to start normally when swapped. The only way to achieve that is to
have it powered down except backup. Unless you put a programmable switch on
D drive power line, I do not see how can one achieve that.
