Airport extreme or Time Capsule

[Perfa]

Hi,

My main backup destination (cracked dlink dns323 NAS) is getting strange with lots of input/output errors randomly deleting its own root/.ssh folders etc. 😡
I need a solution soon.

My network sits with following devices:
1 MacBook Pro
1 MacBook White
2 Iphone 4
2 Airport Express
1 AppleTV 2
1 NAS wired to the Netgear router.

Should i get an airport extreme with usb disc or an time capsule?

Thanks!

Synology NAS, problem fixed.

I concur. If your router doesn't need replacing, get a Synology NAS. Much more versatile than either solution and supports Time Machine backups.

Which model specifically are you suggesting? Just clicking around the Synology website a little these look a little pricey as a Time Capsule replacement. Maybe I am looking at the wrong product line. The feature set does look nice though.

You'll want their Personal and Home Office Class of products:

The DS212j and DS411j are popular amongst MR members.

For a basic and cheap NAS the DS110j + HDD will do sans RAID.

Or a QNAP NAS. In my opinion Synology and QNAP are the two top brands for NAS.
