Hi folks, this is a question for precautionary purposes. We have 3 Macbooks in my house all using Snow Leopard, Two of them are the Black plastic bodied Macbook (2.4 GHz core 2 duo) for kids ~2007 vintage I think and the other is a White plastic one 2.26 GHz (core 2 duo) ~2009 I think. They are all set up and using Time Machine for constant back ups.
My question, if one of them were to have a fatal hard disc failure, can I either get the hard disc replaced, and restore it to its previous configuration, or buy a new Macbook and then configure the new Macbook to the same config? If I were to buy a new one, it would undoubtedly be a Lion OSx, so does this make in difference in the restoration process? When restored, what settings will need further fine tuning - if any? Hopefully someone can advise as I want to be sure that I am not living in a false sense of security thinking that the Time Capsule is my saviour when it may not be in the event of a failure. Thanks.
