Where is the Windows Server Backup Drive?

Hello all,

We have a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM running on a Xenserver and it is our main Domain Controller. I just added the Windows Server Backup feature and attached a new Virtual Drive and assigned the letter B: to store the backups. After I went through the Wizard to create a schedule (I chose to do a full bare metal backup), I got the message:

This disk will no longer be visible in Windows Explorer—to prevent data from accidentally being stored on the drive and then overwritten, and to prevent accidental loss of backups.

Up to there it is all fine, but how do I make this drive visible so I can copy the backups to another computer and an off-site location. I tried to browser to the drive path like b:\Windowsserverbackup\<server name> and it did not work. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks.
