Backup without a micro-sd

Is there any way to fool Sailfish into believing there is a micro-sd card mounted, so that the backup is made to the internal storage (possibly in some mount point)? I don't want to mess around with an sd-card, I just want all contacts, calendar, SMS, settings, etc in a directory that I can gzip and scp to a safe place (preferably in a nightly cron job).

By doing it this way, I can automatically get the phone to copy a full backup off-site, which is better than an SD Card, if my phone gets lost.
