-There is no option to back up an entire storage account directly. But

-how to use AzCopy to move the container:  
+Use AzCopy to download the data. For more information, see [Transfer data
+with AzCopy on Windows](storage-use-azcopy.md) and [Transfer data with AzCopy on Linux](storage-use-azcopy-linux.md).
 
+**How can I download a VHD to a local machine, other than by using the download option in the portal?**
 
-1.  Install the [AzCopy](storage-use-azcopy.md) command-line tool. This tool helps you move the VHD file between storage accounts.
+You can use [Storage Explorer](https://azure.microsoft.com/features/storage-explorer/) to download a VHD.
 
-2.  After you install AzCopy on Windows by using the installer, open a
-    Command Prompt window and then browse to the AzCopy installation
-    folder on your computer. By default, AzCopy is installed to
-    **%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\AzCopy** or
-    **%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\AzCopy**.

+You can use the Azure CLI.
 
-            AzCopy /Source:https://sourceaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer1

+- Download a single blob:
 
-    - `/Source`: Provide the URI for the source storage account (up to the container).  
-    - `/Dest`: Provide the URI for the target storage account (up to the container).  
-    - `/SourceKey`: Provide the primary key for the source storage account. You can copy this key from the Azure portal by selecting the storage account.  
-    - `/DestKey`: Provide the primary key for the target storage account. You can copy this key from the portal by selecting the storage account.

-> [!NOTE]
-> The AzCopy CLI does not work together with the **Pattern** switch when you copy from one Azure blob to another.
