Quoted for the absolute truth.
And why I thank Apple from the bottom of my heart for making it all so painless with Time Machine. I am so frikking anally retentive and scared of losing all my data, I have the Time Capsule in the family safe in the basement plugged into an internet cable that passes through the back of the safe. The safe came with the house cos it's so frikken huge and I had to pay to have it opened that I paid for a hole in its back to pass an ethernet cable through....
Not necessarily the theft, but cos it's fireproof to 3 hours (not quite so sure now it has a hole in it!!!!), I figure my backup drive stands more chance there keeeping my data safe and that of my family than anywhere else.
THANKFULLY though, I've never had my data stolen.
Though the backup has been tried and tested (macbook to imac transfer)
