That does not cover you in case of lightning strike, virus, power supply
failure that can sometimes destroy everything in the box or
if you accidentally delete the files from the disk.  I keep the backup
disk in the removable drawer and I remove it after the backup
from the machine.  You could even put it in the fireproof safe if you
want.
