Hi,
I had to format the hd where I have time machine, so I copy the tm folder to a new folder in other external hard drive.
Now that I format the 1st external hd I trying to copy the tm folder to the root of the formated hd, but after a long wait I get a message saying that there is enought space...
How can solve thia ?
How can I copy that big folder faster, is there any other way ?
Thanks!

Cool. Also, there may be some other good brands, popular mostly in Europe, that we don't hear much about in the U.S.

Yes, you can connect a USB drive to a Time Capsule. But that port is under-powered -- if the drive doesn't have it's own power supply, you'll need a powered USB hub. Sometimes, hubs are also needed for some large (over 1 TB) self-powered drives, too.
See Uses for the USB port of Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express.
Jesus, thanks Pondini!
After trying to copy backupdb to a new external drive for days without luck, and after searching hundreds of different forums, I stumbled on your tip to move ‘backupdb’ to the top level of the drive berfore copying it. That worked like a charm! THANKS for saving my day!
