Apple introduces Automatic wireless backup – Time Capsule

by Eddy on

Apple introduced some new products this year but one that really catching everybody attention called Time Capsule. Apple Time Capsule is revolutionary backup device that works wirelessly with Time Machine software that runs on Mac OS X Leopard. The most exciting feature that Time Capsule performs is that it does automatically backs up all of your Mac data, so you no longer have to worry about losing your precious personal data – photos, digital songs, documents, address books. To give you an example i had brought external USB hard disk to backup my Windows Vista desktop data but seriously i have used it twice and when my hard drive died i wasn’t able to recover all of my current data because after using it twice i stopped backing up my Windows PC. I stopped doing my routine PC’s backup just because of plugging in USB cable and powering on my external disk. Now Apple introduced Time Capsule where you don’t have to connect USB cable for running backup Time Capsule will automatically backup your data over wireless. I wonder we will see similar technologies for Windows PC backup in coming future.

Time Capsule includes a wireless 500GB or 1TB hard drive1 designed to work with Time Machine in Mac OS X Leopard. Just set Time Capsule as the designated backup drive for Time Machine, and that’s it. Depending on how much data you have, your initial backup with Time Capsule could take overnight or longer. After it completes, only changed files are backed up — automatically, wirelessly, and in the background. So you never have to worry about backing up again. Time Capsule cab be purchased from Apple website .There are two versions available – Time Capsule with 500 GB storage capacity costs $299 and 1 GB costs $499 from Apple web site. However amazon is selling 500 GB time capsule for $288.95 with Free Super Saver shipping offer.
