Yep, big USB drives are great. I have a pair of 2Tb USB2 drives for my photo files. I keep one on the desk and the other in the garage. Once a week I'll bring the garage one in and do a Time Machine sync to it, and copy across any updated photo files from the other drive. The reason I keep the second drive in the garage is to keep me covered in case the house burns down... I'm hoping that Apple makes it easier to run multiple Time Machine backups like this, without having to reconfigure it to use each drive in turn. It's not a big deal but I do like to encourage good paranoid backup processes.
