I want to transfer a Time Machine backup

Hi all,

I've got an external drive that currently contains both a SuperDuper and a Time Machine backup on the same partition. The Time Machine backup is nearly filling up the drive, so I want to move that Time Machine backup to its own external hard drive, and leave the current external hard drive for the SuperDuper clone only.

The only way I could think of to do this was to perform a SuperDuper clone of the original external hard drive to the new hard drive, then go into that new hard drive and delete the folders that belong to SuperDuper (Applications, System, Users, etc.). That would in theory leave only the files that belong to Time Machine. Then I would go into the original hard drive, format it to completely wipe it and do a new full SuperDuper clone.

Is this the right method, or is there a more elegant way?
