Listen to John! I'm doing a rolling restore just to avoid the far too common pitfalls.

You also don’t want to take it apart until you are very familiar with it, and you have to realize that once you start taking it apart it's going to be a long time before it's back together. My advice is to just enjoy it for a while before you do anything else.
