Time capsule question

[Mantronix]

Can time capsule be used just as a storage device rather than back up for Leopard (Time machine)? My Linksys router is starting to go out on me and I'm also in the market of buying a external hard drive when I buy my iMac for my music and photo library. Just wondering if I can.

From the Time Capsule Apple.com page:

Time Capsule also works great as a wireless hard drive whether you have a Mac or PC. It sets up in a snap, giving you a networked hard drive you can use for storing and sharing any kinds of files.

I guess I didn't search good enough but thank you. Now my question is whether USB is fast enough or I should go with a firewire 800 hard drive. Only thing wrong with my current router is the wireless is going out.
