2 TB time capsule
The time capsule requires unplugging and re plugging in power cable to get it working again. Is this a power supply problem or likly a board problem?
Is this a good question?

Same ‘Dead’ TC issue here. When I read the part of putting the part in the oven I really thought it had to be a hoax.. It bloody Worked!! I can't believe it... My level of knowledge is not soo good that I understand what actually happened there but... It's ALIVE!!! Thanks :D

Probably just tripped by a surge, check your power outlets.

Like daveedwards, all I get of my TC is the solid amber light when I power it on. Multiple resets don´t work anymore, no flashing lights but the HDD is spinning. I decided to open and remove the drive. Now I´m waiting the arrival of the caddy I bought to connect the HDD and hope for the best. I´ll Keep you posted

I cant say for sure, but judging by apple products, they have a long history of bad power supply so i would go with that.

Care to give us some links to this blanket statement?
My TC has became steadily less and less reliable to the point where all I now get is the solid amber light when I power on. Multiple resets do nothing - no flashing lights or any sign of activity. The HDD appears OK, I can hear it chirping when I power up. Is there any solution or should I just remove the drive and put in a chassis?

Seems to have fixed my TC. Let’s see how long this will last. Great guide!
