I've to jump in here..
I use 2 diff versions of backup.. both are HD to HD.
I have my own rsync script that does a 7 days rotation to another Backup
server. (unfortunately it's located side by side.. )
The other method is using mirrordir (which I've read from linuxjournal )
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6564
http://www.geocities.com/scottlhenderson/mirrordir_4_OS_recovery.html
which does a mirroring like copy.
Works great..
Can be used for your USB HD Backup too satish
