A very good reason in my case which I’ve already outlined.
The other reason is that the storage of the unit I have is a fraction of what I 
need now.
Yes, I could extend by plugging in extra drives but that slows everything down 
more again.
The New Mycloud drives from WD are cheap as chips now, cost me $199 for a 4TB 
unit.
Whilst these drives aren’t Rooters they do far more and are exactly what the 
Time Capsule should have been, a Time Capsule backup, a media streamer, a local 
Cloud drive, completely programmable with SHHH etc.
