Answer
for your usage, this can be used, since you will just connect cables for external use. the sleeve will fit around the MacBook and the material can withstand the heat the MacBook produces. however, you cannot use the sleeve while you use the built in interaction methods (built in trackpad, built in keyboard, etc)

how to shift data from time capsule to airport time capsule
I want to shift data from my Time Capsule 1TB - to a new Airport Time Capsule 2TB.
How do I do this?

I have started to set up the new Airport Time Capsule 2TB, but it says if I replace the existing base station the settings will automatically migrate to the new ATC. Does that mean I lose the data I want to transfer?
