New Airport Time Capsule - Do I continue to backup to DATA?

I am backing up to my new Airport Time Capsule for the first time and was asked if I wanted to continue to backup to DATA. I said yes. Is that correct or should I just back up to the Airport?

iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), iOS 10.0.2

By default, the single disk partition on the Time Capsule's internal drive is named: Data ... so Time Machine, finding it, will offer to back up to it. That should be fine.
