USB drives

[Milan]

Can I connect multiple drives to one USB port via USB hub to AX88U? Has someone tried?

Read this and decide what you want to do:

ASUS RT-AC86U USB capability

Can someone tell me if either of the ASUS RT-AC86U usb ports will support a hub. Thanks, John.

Hm, thanks. As both will be SSD drives, I think the power draw will be not an issue

In my opinion, the issue is how file sharing is implemented in Asuswrt. It works for light duty tasks, but fails under load. If the data you are going to store/share is important to you, better get a real NAS and leave the router alone.

Even this will not be a problem - on existing SSD are stored about 1 000 000 files and everyday additional 10 000 are added and no issues so far. But I will see how it will behave.

Reason is that I don't want to reinstall all things due to bigger drive, so I will add additional one there ... Anyway it is only some sort of storage, nothing else.

I would definitely go with a real NAS box. Try what you think will work and test.
