For now backup hdd is connected as JBOD to

to stop/start backuppc, umount/mount the hdd, remove it from RAID
controller/rescan the controller for new inserted disk.
Nice tips you told here :-)
With a swappable SATA enclosure I could dd one backup of 2 weeks on one
hdd and the backup of the following 2 weeks on the other one and do the
rotation... I'll think about it.
My current system is using one of these with 750 gig drives:

and I use mdadm to fail/remove/add the disks that rotate, momentarily
stopping backuppc and unmounting to get a clean filesystem.
On a smaller system I might consider the laptop-form external USB
drives that you can get in sizes to 250 gigs now and just unmount and
dd the internal partition to it.
Thanks for the tips and help :-)
I'll let you know how it goes.
Cheers,
Hervé
