Hi,
My old Time Capsule 3rd gen (Model A1355 - 1 Tb) is out of order (supposedly the power supply is dead).
I was using it as a wifi-router and data backup for Macbook and PC.
I think that repairing it will be quite hard and I am looking for an alternative which would be the most simple and cheap to avoid buying a Synology NAS. I don't need a media center and I am rarely using File sharing.
I have an old MacMini 2007 (DD 120 Gb and Wi-fi card not working) and I also have a Raspberry Pi 3 that I don't use. I could try to give them a second chance.
What would you advise me to do to replace this time capsule to use it as a wifi-router and data backup for 2 x 512Mb laptops (Mac and Windows) and not spend 500 $.
Thank you
