rotating multipe backup drives for off site protection?

Thread needs solution

We rotate multiple USB HDs so we can keep at least one off site. It appears that when we put a clean drive into the mix, the client backups to the server connected drive fail. Is there an ideal job setup that will start a fresh sequence of full then incremental backups when the existing sequence is gone (e.g. it is on another drive now moved off site)?

Thanks for any suggestions on this process!

In past versions, I had difficulty achieving this by using the same set of tasks for multiple destination disks (external backup drives). It worked better when I set a unique drive letter for each external backup drive, and correspondingly created a separate set of tasks for each destination disk.
