The point is that network drives do not work in 10.5 unless you have a  
OS X Server with a Time Machine server online (I think??). I can only  
assume the Time Capsule has a Time Machine server built in? Or maybe  
Apple are just allowing use of any Network Volume?

I need an AE base station, and also a bigger external drive (my 2x  
200GBs are not cutting it). If I can use one of these as a combined  
NAS and AE base then it's a good one for me.
