Firmware release V1.0.9.88

starting firmware release V1.0.9.88, Apple's "Time Machine Backup", is no longer supported. Would my iMac no longer back up?

   "back up" to _what_?

 

   The recent feature deletion doesn't stop Time Machine from working;
it only makes it impossible to use a storage device which is
USB-connected to the router as a Time Machine storage destination
("Backup Disk").

 

   If your Time Machine storage destination is not USB-attached to the
router, then this feature loss should not affect you.
