Apple announced a raw Airport Extreme earlier this week , andiFixit has already torn it apart . The good news ? It ’s a cyberpunk ’s dreaming .
Instead of choose for a novel , custom event for the new router , Apple has opted to just recycle the case of its Time Capsule — just with the hard drive and connectors pull out . That means there ’s a gaping 3.5 inch drive - shaped void on the inside , just wait to be fill .
The iFixit teardown reveals that the SATA / index connectors required to use a drive are absent on the gadget they rive aside . But no matter : if you palpate so inclined , you could use the USB port and cable a bus - powered 2.5 column inch hard drive around inside the case , as 9to5mac direct out . Voila , a Time Capsule on a budget . Kinda . [ iFixit ]
