hi
on my home computer i have all my databases in /var/lib/mysql/
and our company server stores the data in /usr/local/mysql/var/
so it depends on the configuration (look for the starting script for mysql server for datadir parameter)
and yes it puts all the data there, i'm using it when i want complete update of data at home, i just download the zip with the databases and that's it
hope that helps
