It ' S not Just Intel Code & MDash; After the time comes, the time of time capsules sets in: Apple reduces support for backups of the time machine using hardware at MacOS 27.
time capsules, long-term network equipment Apple, allowing users to reserve Mac and equipment over the home network. However, hardware days are still used by MAC users.

The message clearly recommends that MacOS 27 will not allow the airport disk or the time capture for backup.
Although the Apple does not have the upcoming explanation why the support leaves, this is probably due to the depreciation of supporting technologies.
in the notes for the release of Enterprise for the MacOS Sequoia 15 Apple reported that the support protocol Apple, AFP is installed and removed in the future issue of MacOS. The time capsule is relied on AFP for connection, but also works with SMBV1 (server messages).
Apple still included SMBV1 support in MacOS 26, but only as an outdated measure when working with older software and devices. He prefers to use new SMB versions for security.
Until now, Apple has not announced any change in SMBV1 support in MacOS, in addition to the fact that they were a reserve option, when later versions of SMB are not available. This does not seem to be an eternal manual, although.
Currently, MAC users using the Beta Developer MacOS 26 will still be able to use the time machine with a time capsule. This means that they will have to consider other ways to support their MAC over the next year, in anticipation of the end of support.
The change should not affect the discs used for backup copies external to the airport or time capsule. This is in the assumption that HFS+ support supports MacOS 27, which it is not at all clear.
