I am considering purchasing Time Capsule to act as my daily backup disk.

I do have an external drive that I use for monthly backups (with SD naturally).

Here's my dilemma, I could buy TC for $300 and let TM do my daily backups, OR, I could buy another external drive for only $100 and try to remember to do daily backups.

The issue with the remembering is that we only have a MB, so backing it up involves moving the power cord, plugging in the external, and then running SD. Granted this is not a hard process, but I am liable to forget or not bother.

My thinking is that for the extra $200 I get the assurance that the backup is done automatically. As an added bonus it means I can hook my printer into it and not have to drag the MB over the printer every time I want to print.

Thoughts?
