There is no way for rdiff-backup to know what changed if you swap the drives, so it would be missing out on a week of changes. A cheap way around this (and what I do) is I have rdiff-backup backup to an external drive, and then I clone that external drive to another one using rsync, and the second external drive becomes the off-site backup.
