I'm aware of no compatibility problems with 10.8.4 - you should be fine. But it's always a good idea to wait a few days when a new update comes out...allow others to be the pioneers! :)

So, new Macs don't even have firewire, so on those I'd suggest USB 3, which is both fast and cost effective. Thunderbolt is costlier by a lot, and overkill for our purposes.

Directly bootable? No - the NAS is not available at boot time. But, as explained in the User's Guide, it can boot once restored.

It's probably easiest, these days, to make a little bootable...

No, I'm saying it's not a place to rely on as an archive - that is, you remove the file and assume it'll be fine in the backup. It's not intended to be used that way, and is not reliable enough...

OK. So, yes, you can copy Time Machine like that (although you should use copy both times, NOT the "Restore" script).
