Clarification around "Data and Log Files ..." and "Backup Files ..." policies

Hi,

We ship these two Best Practices policies

• Place Data and Log Files on Separate Drives
• Backup Files Must Be on Separate Devices from the Database Files

Unfortunately, neither of those two policies can detect separate physical devices through Windows mount points.   We will clarify the documentation on this and look to get this working across mount points in a future release.
