- rsync when you plug in
- make a copy
- rsync to copy continously during work
(note that this rsynced copy will be inconsistent,
it only serves to speed up the last step)
- final rsync to copy after you shut down the
virtual machine before you unplug the external disk
- delete the initial rsync (which was the copy
_before_ this session)

Should be acceptably fast even with large VMs.
