I purchased time capsule for a external hard drive. Did I make a misstake

If you only plan to back up one Mac, it would probably have been cheaper to buy a disk drive that you could connect to your Mac and use for Time Machine backups.

Did I make a $200 mistake?

It's a good router, if that helps 🙂

I my opinion you made a good purchase, if I was you I would use all functions of the Time Capsule it makes managing your network simple, also you will have the benefit of connecting a printer/hard drive to use wirelessly.
