[Ti] Airport backup?

[Bradley Ellis]

Hey Ondra,

Thanks for the information.

So there's no way to connect my Airport Extreme Base station to my  
firewire ac-powered hard drive (no adaptors, etc.)?

Even if I could connect, would my wireless computers "see" the hard  
drive and be able to access it wirelessly?

I guess an option would be "hardwire" (via ethernet cable) a cheap  
computer to the Airport base and access the external hard drive this  
way?

Sincerely,
Brad
