How did you copy a 7GB file?, I can't get it to use a file larger than 4GB, Thought it would make a good backup device but it's fat32.
The good: Seems to be a superior AP for us. easy to setup and configure. Very good range. Great home device if all your using is Mac. Only good thing for business I see is the guest network, but your guests may turn up being 3 doors down, and pulling torrents.
The bad: Only seems to be a good backup(NAS) if your usinge the built in Time Capsule Mac software. Ineffective with windows devices. Not very usefull as a business device due to FAT32 file system, and poor advanced setup.
Apple Time Capsule is a convenient and simple wireless router and NAS server combo for your home. Unfortunately, especially in the case of the 1TB version, you can find better deals on devices that offer greater storage space and many more features for the price.
RRP: AU$779.00

Worst AP I have ever had, Wouldn't work with Ibook g4. When the ibook is restarted the airport interface on the ibook requires reconfiguration, It locks up all the time.
The good: Pretty (form over function)
The bad: Locks up regularly, runs very hot. Limited port forwarding.
