Netgear Orbi High-Performance AC3000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi System - USB hard drives

Hello, 

 

I need to upgrade my older Netgear router, and the Orbi looks great.  Can I use the USB to connect my USB hard drive to the network?  It looks like at first it didn't work, then it worked for printers, but I haven't seen that it supports hard drives.

 

Thanks

    It supposidly supports USB drives as NG has not implemented printer support on Orbi as of yet last I heard.
