H there, my Brother in law has two iMacs each of which we’re backing to his old style flat Time Capsule which is now dead - tried all of the reset methods numerous times. It’s cactus. Some options he has are to buy a used tower style TC or go to using his iiNet NBN modem Wifi and attach a backup NAS drive to it and set Time Machine to push backups to the NAS.
Does anyone have experience with either and if the NAS route is all ok, is there a recommended brand of NAS? Does Migration Assistant work ok in pulling back to set up a new iMac from a backup on a NAS? Are there any downsides to a NAS solution. The TC is such a good device it is a shame that Apple no longer produce them. There may be some new-old stock laying around or a cleared known used one would be ok I suppose.
