Q: Airport time capsule crash with attached USB hard drive
Hi All,
I recently purchased a new "tower" airport time capsule and it works just fine except when I attach a Lacie 2 TB HDD to it by using the USB connection. I wish to backup some critical photo files to it but when I use either CCC or Deja Vu the process works as expected for a few minutes and then the time capsule hangs. At this point, I'm unable to access the HDD on my desktop and the only solution is to restart the airport itself by unplugging it (restarting my mac doesn't help). Has anyone else experienced this issue and, importantly, does anyone know of a possible solution as it's quite frustrating! I've updated the HDD firmware but it hasn't solved the problem. What's particularly odd is that I never had this problem with my old airport extreme. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
