Please Apple can you make Time Capsules again?
Hi,
I am so tired of the poor backup solutions offered out there! I never understood why Apple stopped making such a great product as the Time Capsule. A brilliant product offering storage + a private network. I tried to replace my 2 time capsules (3TB each) by a Synology DS220+ 2x6TB… What a disaster!! My conclusion is: it is not really compatible with Apple and is so tiresome to use and set. Regularly, I lose the connection as for some reasons it changes its IP address. Many comments and issues reported on Reddit and other Synology help platforms but their products are just not great for apple users. Twice already my Synology 6TB drive is full (raid1)… Time Machine is supposed to erase older backups but apparently it is not working on Synology. Backups size of both mac/mac book pro are 600GB + 750GB. So, luckily I still had a 3TB time capsule. My other capsule had a dead HD, so I ordered a new HD and replaced it thanks to a YouTube video!! I am not at all an IT person but I was really motivated!! Got my 2 time capsules still working now and my apple airports too.
So please, Apple can you come up with a new Apple friendly and efficient backup solution for Apple users? I can assure you, I am not the only one missing these Apple Capsules…
