 Rating:  - This is a keeper!!!I've got to admit, I had quite a few reservations about ordering the Time Capsule... The experiences I had with my late, unlamented AirPort Extreme (mostly bad) caused me to hesitate more than a few times before clicking on the button to finalize the sale. As a parenthetical note, I got one of the first Time Capsules, as I had pre-ordered through the Apple online store. When I received the Time Capsule (on a Tuesday), I waited until the following Saturday to begin the set up process, believing that ... Read More Rating: - Excellent Product - Worked Instantly and Very ConfigurableI'm a big Apple fan, but was a little weary about buying Time Capsule because some of the negative reviews I read here. I did, however, end up purchasing the 500 gb version and am extremely happy with it. The wireless network worked instantly, and it was very easy to add MAC address filtering and encryption. Using a USB printer was also simple and works reliably. I limited the space available for Time Machine backups to 250 gb by using a sparse image (the technique is discussed in many ... Read More Rating:  - FAST, helpful, but not as robust in configuration.Let it be know that yes, I am a snobby Apple user. I am very demanding that my environment be very intuitive but also lets me tweak it at a low level. This router does NOT do that. The good points of this are obviously the automated backups built into an airport extreme. If you do the math you also find you are getting quite a good deal, as an Airport Extreme router and external HD will run you a bit more than this configuration will. Yes, it does have a deathstar---wait I mean--- Deskstar ... Read More Rating:  - Ethernet/wireless router + quiet hard drive, potential configuration trouble in mixed PC/Win network, lacks some usabilityGood: - quiet!!! - single box for both router and hard drive, compact - nice design - works nicely with Leopard TimeMachine, providing automatic backup Bad: - any non-trivial setup make take a while (I had trouble while upgrading to Leopard which refused to see TimeCapsule, while it was working ok with Tiger; my Win notebook never saw it even after Bonjour installation) - heats up even when hard disk is idle - any configuration change ... Read More Rating: - Very Good Apple ProductThe assumption here is that you are going to use this product with Apple computers. With that in mind this product works very well. Setup is extremely easy via the Airport Utility built into your Apple computer. The wireless network is setup within minutes. The router also offers several dual band options to allow you to simultaneously have an "n" and "g" network running for your devices to get optimal speed for each device. Backup for the most part to the device works great even on a "g" equipped ... Read More |
