It wont happen to me is no protection.
For those that have not thought about their computer having a mechanical failure, this shows my 4 minute smart/incremental back up by 800 Firewire using SuperDuper.

Snow Leopard - 3000 photos - 40 odd music discs = 275,000 files giving 72GB
When Logic board failed on MBPro i used same HD connected to my wife's iMac Firewire 800 and continued working for the 2 weeks MBP was away.
When i had the MBP back, i copied latest changes back from Ext HD to MBP and all was up to date. Plan for it - mechanical failure does happen.
