Inside Time Capsule's sleek design is a 1 TB hard drive. | Works with Time Machine for Easy Backups
Time Capsule includes a wireless 1TB hard drive designed to work with Time Machine in Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard. Just set Time Capsule as the designated backup drive for Time Machine, and that's it. Depending on how much data you have, your initial backup with Time Capsule could take overnight or longer. After it completes, only changed files are backed up - automatically, wirelessly, and in the background. So you never have to worry about backing up again. Even better, new technologies in Time Capsule and refinements to Time Machine make backing up to Time Capsule using Snow Leopard faster than before. Backup Multiple Computers
Have multiple Mac computers in your house? Time Capsule can back up and store files for each Leopard- and Snow Leopard-based Mac on your wireless network. No longer do you have to attach an external drive to each Mac every time you want to back up. Time Capsule spares you the work. 1TB Provides Plenty of Space
Time Capsule is your one place for backing up everything. Its massive 1TB server-grade hard drive gives you all the capacity and safety you need. So whether you have 250 songs or 250,000 songs to back up, room is the last thing you’ll run out of. Ultimate Wireless Base Station
More than just a wireless hard drive, Time Capsule is also a full-featured AirPort Extreme Base Station with 802.11n technology. Experience a high-speed wireless network and a breakthrough way to back up all the Mac computers on your network. All in one device. Simultaneous Dual-Band Support
Some Wi-Fi devices use the 2.4GHz wireless band, including iPhone, iPod touch, and devices using 802.11b/g. Other devices can use either 2.4GHz or the higher-speed 5GHz band, such as the latest 802.11n-based Mac computers and Apple TV. Instead of choosing one of the bands, Time Capsule operates simultaneously on both bands, and your multiband devices automatically use the best available band. This means all your Wi-Fi devices get the fastest possible wireless performance and the best possible range. In addition, Time Capsule reduces the possibility of interference from appliances and cordless phones that use the 2.4GHz band. 
Time Capsule can backup multiple Macs automatically. | Share the Internet Securely with Guest Networking
It’s easy to allow guests to use your Internet connection without sharing your password or giving them access to the rest of your network. Simply enable the guest networking feature using the AirPort Utility application and create a separate Wi-Fi network just for your friends. You can set up this guest network with a different password or with none at all. Your primary network - including your printer, attached drives, or other devices - remains secure. Share a Printer or Additional Hard Drive with USB Port
The included USB port is great for sharing a printer throughout your wireless network. Time Capsule and the Bonjour networking technology let everyone in the house or office - Mac and PC users alike - take advantage of one centrally located printer. And if you want to share both a printer and an additional hard drive, you can. Just connect a USB hub to Time Capsule. Whatever the combination, Time Capsule divides and conquers. 
Time Capsule is compatible with Macs and PCs. | Works with Mac and PC.
Time Capsule with Time Machine in Leopard or Snow Leopard is the ideal backup solution. But that doesn’t mean Mac OS X Tiger, Windows XP, and Windows Vista users can’t enjoy the benefits of Time Capsule, too. Because Time Capsule mounts as a wireless hard drive, Tiger and Windows users simply access Time Capsule directly from the wireless network for exchanging and storing files quickly and easily. Apple Time Capsule measures 7.7 x 7.7 x 1.4 inches. It is backed by a one-year warranty. What's in the Box
Time Capsule, CD with AirPort Utility (Mac and Windows), AirPort Disk Utility for Windows, and Bonjour for Windows, Power cord, Printed and electronic documentation
Simultaneous dual-band operation allows for optimal performance of your wireless devices. |

What can I say, it works.
I recommend Time Capsule for sharing data or for backups, not both. If you need both, get 2 Time Capsules, one for each use. For sharing data, Time Capsule is great. Every computer on the network can access the device easily.
The Time Capsule provides the easiest back ups possible. It is very easy to set-up and use. I suggest one user per Time Capsule. This keeps set-up simple, and provides the maximum storage space possible. If you have a laptop, this is the backup solution for you. If you have a desktop computer, I'd suggest a dedicated Firewire 800 hard drive for backups. Why? Because wireless is SLOW when compared with wired. USB is SLOW compared to Firewire 800, but USB is faster than wireless. So why do I recommend Time Capsule for laptops? To get rid of the wires, that's why you have a laptop. With any backup system your first backup will take a LONG time, but subsequent backups will be much quicker. Just be patient.
With backups, easy is a must. If it's not easy, it's not going to happen. Mac users? Use Time Machine. It works.
Some people complain that Time Capsules sometimes break. Yep, happens. Grow up, it's mechanical, it'll break. Get AppleCare for it. When it breaks, Apple will fix it. But my backups are on it! So? I assume you didn't kill your computer too. Just make a new backup and move on.
If your computer data is important to you, get a Time Capsule, or many. It's the best backup solution out there. I know, I've tried many. I want easy, dependable. This is it.
Some products just really work..... July 16, 2010

Set up is reasonably straight forward; though I did need help re-setting the Airport Extreme Base Station that had been my hub to be used now as a repeater.
The Time Machine feature is everything I had hoped....close to 100% automatic.
Apple knows how to do it July 14, 2010

The setup of the Time Capsule was so very easy ... hooked up with Clear 4G modem ... two wireless laptops access the Time Capsule and a desktop is wired via Ethernet to the Time Capsule ... also have an HP2610 all-in-one printer plugged into the Time Capsule via USB, all laptops and desktop have access to it ... a little expensive but once again Apple shows that you get what you pay for ... love having a server grade drive right in the router ... and the automatic backups are great, you set it up and leave it alone ... highly recommend!!
 Happy so far July 7, 2010

I purchased the time capsule for one simple reason I wanted to be safe, just in case the worst happened. And that is exactly what it is perfect for. No complications, just open the box turn it on and follow the instructions. I cant believe how easy it is to use with time machine, and I know know that my computer is safe. What else can you ask for in a product but to deliver exactly what it says it does with no complications what so ever. Thanks Amazon for the great price too!
