USB Network hub

AppleMooseMan · Dec 9, 2012, 07:30 PM

Hey guys, looking for a hub to plug directly into my router and then share my external hard drives over the network.

Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Router has no USB ports. The hub needs an Ethernet port.

And some sort of server to serve the discs in a network accessible way...
