Over the decades, I have had two sudden catastrophic failures of
'spinning' discs (one had the read head mechanism fall off but
fortunately that one had nothing important on, and one had some other
failure which one of the expensive recovery services threw their hands
up at... which did, although fortunately not much) and one of a microSD
card (I can live without the data, but I'm sad it went).

So I'm not quite so optimistic that I won't do a restore, even though
that's three out of 'quite a lot'.

This is for the home kit :)
