Hi Guys,

I am having some trouble with my latest gen time capsule, I am wanting to reset it to factory defaults by holding the reset button on the back for 5 seconds. My question is will this reset method wipe the hard drive inside the time capsule?

Please don't answer if you are just guessing, because as you will be able to workout I do not want to get this wrong.

Thanks in advance
-Nick

Official word right from the Apple support doc. It won't erase the drive.
