Since you have 2 disks, you could just start from scratch on one of them 
and wait until it has a complete set before you swap again.  Another 
approach is to always run on an internal drive, but periodically 
image-copy to a matching external disk that you rotate offsite.  I do it 
that way myself but recently switched from firewire externals to a 
swappable SATA enclosure.  I do the mirroring with software raid, but it 
would work as well to unmount the partition temporarily and dd it.
