one of my time capsules has croaked
It's slightly annoying to discover that the time capsule I use to back up one of my computers has converted itself into a white brick.
I don't solely rely upon the device as a backup but I still consider the device to have been a relatively recent addition to the environment (albeit outside of warranty), probably with a main purpose to outlive the system it is backing up.
Anyway, after varied attempts to revive it, I pinged it apart and retrieved the 'Hitachi Deskstar' terabyte disk from inside it. I diagnostically tried it without the disk but not even the network lights would come on at the back of the unit.
Something rather terminal has happened inside of it. I feel a "dear Apple" email is needed.
