VersionBackup is for doing several versions of the same thing (file/directory). SyncBack is (one way of use) for backing up and have one version of sth.

Ie. I use VersionBackup for making versions of my urd files (like you do) on the same HDD, and backing up the drive with Syncback to my USB drive.

Are you backing your HDD only once a week? If so, you are wrong on this one:
"So, the "hole" in my backup strategy is anything shorter than a day"
It's like the saying that a chain is as strong as its weakest link. Likewise, if things go wrong (your main HDD failure), you can in the worst scenario lose one week of work.
