Hope the drives are EASILY user-replaceable. Would love to fill a drive, ship it off to my parent's house for safe-keeping, and then pop a new drive in it.

We'll soon find out!

Does this mean no AirDrive support (ie USB-attached drive + AEBS) for Time Machine?

How about fixing the issues some people are having with the Airport Extreme Base Station first?

If I can use it as a NAS to store content my Mac, :apple:tv, and iPhone can access, I'll take one.

Could be a handy little gadget.

A tick pricey, not too much though, but nifty anyway.

That's not bad if you don't already have an AEBS(n), really. 500GB drives are at least $100 just about anywhere you look.

Is this just specifically for backup? Or can we like store stuff on it?
