What I'd like to do is get a time capsule to use as a media server for music. I have a 2tb fw800 drive that I use for backups with time machine, and I'm wondering if I'd be able to backup the data on the time capsule to the fw drive. I know you can do this with other mounted drives but I'm not sure about network drives.

Also, for those of you with the current 2tb time capsule, how loud is it? The firewire drive I have now is a 2tb g-tech g-drive and it's rather loud when spinning in comparison to my macbook pro and not something I want to leave on when I'm not backing up.
