[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1914298, member: 396914"] As has been asked, what is it you want to accomplish? The Apple TC is just a wifi router with an internal hard drive that could be used for backup. You can get the same functionality with a USB drive that you attach to your present router (even, I think, the Apple TC). Or you can do a backup with the USB drive directly attached to the Mac, or to a hub attached to the Mac, or, or, or. Lots of options. I even think you can backup from Monterey to the TC itself, but I do have to admit I don't know that for sure. I think it depends on how the TC drive is mounted. You can use a NAS, if you want, for another set of options. And has been mentioned, iCloud is not a bad way to go. I think Ian got the pricing wrong, though. I found this at Apple: [URL unfurl="true"]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201238[/URL] I have 2TB for US$9.99/month. [/QUOTE]
