Time Capsule seems ideally suited for a home network that hasn’t yet upgraded to an 802.11n wireless network (and, thus, doesn’t yet have a new AirPort Extreme Base Station). Time Capsule is a big improvement for such networks, although t...
Allows both internal and USB-connected drive Time Machine backups for Leopard users; includes all AirPort Extreme features; archive option for simplified off-site backups; houses drive, power supply in one tidy case.
Can’t swap internal drive; Time Machine’s hourly backups are too often for networked system.

When Time Capsule was first announced, the Apple fanboy scuttlebutt anticipated a NAS to end all NASs—one that would combine fast wireless with networked storage, RAID capability, and software smarts for media serving, remote access, and more. Inste...
Wireless-n at 2.4 or 5 GHz. Flawless operation with networked Time Machine backups, as well as with USB hard drive and printer sharing. Good price.
Lacks home media-serving features. Printer sharing but no print server. No hardware redundancy. No easy upgrade path.
Apple has done a fine job of building an easy way for Leopard users to perform Time Machine backups over the network, but dont expect advanced NAS features...
