[Hidden-tech] Advice needed: Time Capsule crash

[mattl at florenceit.net]

I just went through this with a new client recently. If your "backup" drive is the sole location of your data, then I hate to tell you (or you just found this out), but you in fact are in need of a backup solution. See the online backup discussion that just happened here, lot's of good points made
Thanks,
Matt Lampiasi

Hi,

I sure would appreciate some advice about my Apple Time Capsule. The  
Apple Store techs told me that it crashed and it is completely  
unusable. They are willing to give me a new one since it is under  
warranty (less than a year old) but I must turn in my old one. They  
say that my data is not retrievable and there is no need to worry  
about anyone at the Apple factory accessing my personal information.  
Can anyone confirm this? And should I go with the Time Capsule again  
or get a different hard drive back-up system? Are there more reliable  
external hard drives? And should I have a hard drive to back up my  
back up?

Many thanks in advance to all who are willing to offer their advice  
and experience.

Jaime
