You should partition the new drive into two volumes, one for each source volume you want to back up. Make sure you click the "Options" button in the Partition tab of Disk Utility and select the proper partition scheme!

So no viable options other than partitioning the drive? Not a big problem now since my drive is new, but the downside is that I need to fix the sizes of the partitions now and I can't foresee whether one partition (photo or video) will be much more quickly filled up than the other (and don't want to spend on partitioning software)... |

You can use images, but I wouldn't recommend that unless you're forced to.

They're not directly bootable and are more 'indirect' - that is, if something happens to part of the image, you tend to lose the whole thing. Whereas with a backup that's written directly to a disk, if one file is damaged the rest are usually OK.
