The new 1TB or 500GB Time Capsule runs dual Wi-Fi, streaming at 802.11n and 802.11g speeds. The Capsule will pick the right band automatically, allowing for more efficient back-ups – a huge issue when transferring large files.

You can act as a wireless base station and has a new “guest” mode that allows you to give guests Internet access without exposing the rest of your network. It has three Ethernet ports and one Internet port along with a USB port for expansion for another printer or hard drive.

1TB costs $499 and 500GB costs $299.
