The safe weighs 35Kg but the concrete pad the house is built on (and to
which the safe is coach bolted) weighs considerably more.  I have no
concern
about people accessing my data - that which needs to be protected is
suitably secure - the rest - movies, photos etc. are of no import to anyone
other than me.  Come to think of it if they nick my server they will have a
copy of everything anyway.

HOWEVER - If they do nick my server then a call to Dell, the expenditure of
1 Kilopound and a few hours of messing about restoring data will put me
back
where I am now.  That situation will now be the norm going forward, which
was the goal in the first place.
