Time Capsule overheat message
I have a 3rd generation 1TB Time Capsule fed by a high speed Cable Internet connection.
Two Ethernet ports are used by an old LaserWriter 16-600PS, and a new Apple TV.
The USB port houses a USB hub to which three hard drives (for a total of 5 partitions) are connected.
This setting has been working flawlessly for nearly two years now.
For the second time this month, an alert appeared on my screen telling me that my Time Capsule "might be experiencing an overheating issue", eventhough my connection was working perfectly normal.
I went and checked (my TC is in another room) and found out that it was merely luke warm (as it always is), but that what seemed to be a noisy fan was on. The normally green status light was blinking yellow.
I disconnected its AC plug and reconnected it a minute later. Everything is now back to normal.
The most recent TC software (7.6.1) is installed.
Wonder if it is a real hardware problem, a bug in the software, or a false alarm triggered by external conditions or whatever.
Is my Time Capsule hinting me that it is about to die ?
Any thoughts ?
