ESXi - how to backup the VM's OS only? (alien.top)

I created a VM running Xpenology. The OS is installed in a small 64GB SSD and there are HDDs (23TB total) attached to the VM for data. I want to backup the 64GB SSD only, but the backup tool is recognizing this VM of having 24.6TB (SSD+HDD).

Below is the screenshot, how do I backup the SSDs in red below?

Or pass-through HBA instead of disks.
