I keep two TM destinations on the go, to avoid ever needing to copy when one
goes invalid. Since I started using Time Machine in Leopard I've never needed
to retrieve anything older than a couple of weeks.

Copy if you like this time, but then keep both disks on rotation and you'll
never need to do it again.
