windows7 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 so they just replaced the airport extreme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathachew Veteran Posted January 15, 2008 Veteran Share Posted January 15, 2008 I wonder if Time Capsule will have more than one drive? I much rather have data redundancy over more space. If the drive dies, so does your data, not so much with a data redundant and fault tolerance setup. With multiple computers backing up to a single location, having space is important, but I think being able to save that data is even more so important.

Hurmoth Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 299 for 500gb is a bit high though... Not when you consider that there is also a built-in Air Port Extreme which is $200 alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majortom1981 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 The price isnt bad for 1TB I have seen wired nas devices with 1TB for cheaper but for an apple device its not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Time Capsule sounds cool :D If anyone's having problems with slow websites connect to macrumors' IRC channel (irc.macrumorslive.com #macrumors). All the updates are posted there, with links to photos etc. You can't see or talk to anyone so it's like a live RSS feed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windows7 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 299 for 500gb is a bit high though... Yes, but look at what its used for........ plus you can get a 1TB for 500. Would you rather have them go by size/price? 500GB = 500 bucks and 1TB for 1000. Just be lucky they have it at a good rpice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurmoth Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 so they just replaced the airport extreme? I don't think so, I think this is a separate product from the Air Port Extreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
