Hi everybody,
I just can't figure this out for myself. I've tried. And failed, miserably.
I have a 27" iMac. I'm connected to the internet wirelessly via a O2 Wireless Box II.
I need to buy an external hard drive on which to back up my data. I want to use it with Time Machine.
Ideally I'd like the external hard drive to work wirelessly. Is there such a thing (apart from Time Capsule)?
I was thinking about buying a Time Capsule. However, I only have one computer (no file, etc. sharing required here), so maybe I would be wasting my money??
Could the Time Capsule replace my O2 wireless box II or would I still need the O2 wireless box II to connect to the internet? (Sorry, I don't understand about 'routers' and 'modems'.)
I'm in such a muddle. If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Gav
