Drive transplant - Time Capsule


Any recommendations for a replacement drive for a 3-year old Time Capsule, ie. pro's / con's of specific brands/models of drive?

A friend of mine currently has a 1TB TC for their iMac but is buying a MacBook Pro and wants to use the single TC to backup both machines, so she's going to need more capacity.

If it were me, I'd get a NAS drive, like WD Red or Seagate NAS.

You can also get a USB external drive and connect it to the time capsule and backup directly to it. Though it would be limited to USB 2.0.
