Alternate two backup drives

Most of the storage on my Mac Mini is taken up with large photographic files.


I have Timemachine set up to a single external HDD, using a thunderbolt connection.


I would like to add a second HDD via daisy chain link, then setup Timemachine to backup to alternate discs automaticly.


Any ideas please

You can only set up alternating backups to two external hard drives thru Time Machine when using Mountain Lion. Not in Lion.
