Kind of like how I feel about cloud servers...while one average person's computer may not be worth assembling a dedicated hacker team to crack, once you have thousands or millions of people storing their most sensitive data in one location it gets a lot more attractive as a target. I know there will all kinds of safeguards in place, but nothing is really 100% secure if you can dedicate enough resources to the problem. And that's without considering gaining access via disgruntled employees and other social engineering tactics.

Sleep well.

I just want to know how well that works with the terabytes of data that I have. I guess you would spend about a month doing a full restore not to mention a few months doing the first backup.

Even with my fast N network I still take my drives off of the Airport and plug them into a Firewire port for doing a large restore or the initial backup.
