Time Capsule Disk is Failing

[benlee]

I'm getting this error?
Anything I can do short of buying a new Time Capsule or other backup solution? It is definitely out of warranty because it is a 1st Generation Time Capsule.

Thanks for any help.

You can crack it open and replace the drive. 2TB drives can be had for about $100 or less.

Drives are cheap, so you can definitely DIY, or if you live close to an Apple store, it never hurts to go and speak to the manager. They have been known to replace these out of warranty given the issues they had with them.
