The Time Capsule Model A1302 is the second generation of Apple's wireless router and networked storage device released in March 2009. Most information from these repair and disassembly guides also applies to the original Model A1254.

Hybrid Hard drive on A1302 Time Capsule

Hi,

can I use a hybrid HD such as Seagate FireCuda 2 TB - Internal Hybrid Drive - 3.5" - SATA 6Gb/s on my A1302 Time Capsule?

If not, what would be the best and fastest HD choice?

Thanks

John

Your not looking for speed so much on a Time Capsule as reliability. I think you would do better with a Seagate Enterprises drive.

Hi Mayer, thanks for your answer. I checked pricing for the Enterprise drive but it's more expensive than a new TC. Maybe I looked for the wrong model. Any other suggestions?

Well. since speed is not a issue on a backup drive, just go with a standard 2TB drive.
