Congratulations! Just be mindful that drive is probably on borrowed time based on average life expectancy and that icloud is a distributed SaaS that looks after ensuring you don't lose your stuff. This is one hard drive - if / when it dies, anything that isn't backed up elsewhere is gone - so not a good single solution as a primary store for anything you don't want to lose. if you have more 'stuff' Backblaze personal at $99 per annum is unlimited and pretty hard to beat

Hello Richard, · I repair and modify Time Capsules; I can also add different drives to 'upsize' them. The 'repair' is usually the PSU that has cooked in its own heat - the capacitors die. The modification is to the internal cooling fan, which as built; has no air inlet hole, faces the wrong way and is not turned on. Correct these blunders and the whole TC will run 10°C cooler. *nice* :-) · To upsize to 2TB try to not use the latest WD drives (good as they are), they will NOT spin-down in the TC environment. Use a Samsung F4 Eco-Green, works well has has proved to be very reliable. · To upsize to 3TB, again do not use the WD 3TB green offering. It will not spin-down and as a result takes more power than it should and keeps the internal temperature slightly higher than is good. Use a Hitachi 3TB Deskstar (especially when the prices come back down to sensible levels from their present very high level). · Cheers, · Chris Fackrell · www.fackrell.me.uk · Update · When 'upsizing' the Time Capsule, I used to use the Hitachi Deskstar but no longer do so. The drive of choice, primarily because of cost and availability, is now the Seagate Barracuda. I have not done a great number of these so far, about 5x only with no negative comments. Slightly disconcerting is the UK warranty offered on these is only 1 year. · The Hitachi was 2 years and is now 1. This for me was almost a tad unfortunate as I had two failures of these drives inside TCs that I had upsized, after 11 months 2 weeks and few days! · Excellent timing Hitachi... they did replace them and the new units returned have been running now for a few months; again no negative comments. · Regards,
