I'm looking at replacing my AEBS to get the better performance of the latest versions. At the same time, I was considering ditching the external USB drive I use for Time Machine in favor of a FireWire 800 drive since my Mac really slows down when Time Machine runs...and backups take a looooong time.
Does Time Machine work better with a Time Capsule, or should I just get a new AEBS and FireWire drive?
Separately, can one partition a large time capsule to have one volume for backups and another for network accessible storage....or separate partitions for discreet time machine backups for different Macs?
