Sony A7r II, I need to save on SD card while I'm tethered

I have a Sony a7r II. While tethering, it doesn't offer the option to save on the SD card as a backup. Under "Camera Setting" --> "Shoot," there is no "Save to" option to have the SD card as a backup. There have been many instances when the camera was still buffering to the computer, and Capture One crashed and the pictures were lost. 

Does Capture One not offer an option to back up the SD card for my camera model? 

Please advise; any help is appreciated. Thank you.

  No, there is no option in C1 which I know but it is also not necessary because you can and must set this in the camera. The position of this setting might be differ by camera model (I'm shooting A7RIII now) but should be found in the menu Setup - PC Remote Settings - Still Img. Save Dest.: Choose PC+Camera.

  The Sony A7R2 does not support this.

  Hi Joeri. Thank you for your response and confirmation. It's too bad since it's a top-of-the-line camera back during the day. This camera was known for all its tech features, but Sony missed that feature. As Okular mentioned, the following model (and newer ones) support this. Cheers.
