Its footprint was similar to the latest AirPort Express and Apple TV (2nd generation and later), though it was considerably taller. While the height increased significantly over the previous generation, the I/O ports remained the same. Capacities remained identical to the fourth generation at 2 TB and 3 TB, while introducing the latest 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard. | ME177LL/A (2 TB) ME182LL/A (3 TB) |

The device includes a full AirPort Extreme Base Station (with 802.11n wireless, an Ethernet WAN port, and three Ethernet LAN ports). Storage is provided by what Apple calls a "server-grade" hard drive. In early 2009, Apple released new models offering simultaneous 802.11n dual-band operation to allow older devices to use lower wireless speeds without affecting overall performance. Simultaneously released was the Guest Network feature, allowing guests to log in with a separate password to keep the private network secure. | MB764LL/A (500 GB) MB765LL/A (1 TB) MB996LL/A (2 TB) |
