When I read articles like this one, it makes me wonder what classification of information was compromised. I highly doubt it's DoD Secret or greater and if it's less than that, the damage caused by this information landing in the wrong hands is probably minimal, though disconcerting.
This doesn't deal with calssification through aggregation. While there may not be any classified documents (though how many 'drafts' are there) the classification of the information can increase due to an agregation of data.
What that means is that each piece of data may be classified at a lower level, but when combined with other information it create a highly sensitive data set. It is important to never underestimate the value of the information stored on your networks, even those at the lowest level
