Check File System On Apple Time Capsule

After suffering from months of lag and buffering from my Apple Time Capsule, I decided it was time to upgrade to the best on the market. Easy to set up, and it's working like a charm. Great product that's worth every penny.

These replace an Apple Airport Time Capsule ($600, replaced once by Apple) which Apple stopped making in 2016. I could not be happier so far. Using one as a router on the landing of my basement stairs and one on the windowsill in my problem room (a converted one-car garage with concrete walls under the new paneling), not only do I suddenly get coverage ALL OVER the house (a first), but it even reaches to an outdoor balcony, the covered porch in back, and a separate building in the yard where I have my pool table--where there was zero signal before. Also, the speeds are suddenly much faster. The worst speeds with the TP-Link are better than the best speeds with the Time Capsule. I didn't even do any experimenting with siting the second unit--I just put it on the windowsill where it was handiest (see pic), and it works fine. My experience did deviate from that of some others in that setup was not straightforward for me--I had to spend a lot of time on the phone with Chris from Spectrum, who was very patient and cheerful. I do live in a very rural area, and have a complicated 1880's house. We did get it running, and I'm still not sure how. But all is well in the end. I haven't even had these set up for one day so far, so I can't speak to reliability. But for performance, I'm very happy. The screen shot shows my speeds out on my front porch, which I use as my office. The porch is behind some real plaster walls with METAL lathe, which usually acts like a perfect RF shield. That is the largest speed number I've ever seen out here by a far shot. BIG KUDOS and thanks to B&H Customer Service--the rep I talked to prior to buying these (I wish I could remember his name) really did a thorough job running down my options, and recommended these along with two other recommendations at different price points. He told me I was going to see big gains in performance, and was he ever right.

Bought this as a replacement for my slowly dying Apple AirPort Time Capsule. Setup was relatively smooth, and the WD My Cloud is working as good, if not better, than the Time Capsule did. And it has enough space to back up all four of my family's MacBooks. Haven't used any of the other WD features, so I can't comment on that.

Does the job ( Apple Time Capsule internal disk replaced). Fairly quiet and great price from B&H.

Replacing an Apple time capsule for routine backups. Passport was a chosen with expert help fromB&H customer service to match my hardware and personal needs. Knowledgeable help is hard to reach by phone these days.

I replaced a 7 year old Apple time capsule with this since it's one of the few routers out there that supports AFP network shares. The Synology firmware/software is really the star of the show. Very simple to set up and use, but lots of options and ability to customize rather esoteric features.

I test it and check the file quality is perfect

It is now time to organize 1000s of negatives from the past. The very best way to both store and organize is the Print File Archival system pages. Three ring binders complete the organization system.

This product is a must have! Impact brand is my go-to for everything. Any time I need something new, I check to see if they carry it first. Amazing balance between quality and price. Originally, I was looking into getting the Quantum Q-Flash system, but thank God I checked with Impact first. I now have what I consider to be a superior system for A THIRD OF THE PRICE! The battery charges quickly, you get lots of full power pops, recycle time is pretty quick and the additional firing modes are fantastic. I WILL be purchasing more of these lights in the future. I would like to get 2 more (if you're following along, that will mean I will have 3 400W/s DC powered monolights WITH battery and case for the same price as one single 150W/s Q-Flash and battery). If you are thinking about getting one of these, STOP... It's a no brainer.

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.
