I got the Seagate hub to work with 2 hard drives connected to the USB hub ports. First, you have to be patent and wait for the drive to ve recognized by the router. Wait 5 minutes or so. Then use the mao network drive and wait for the drop down box to show READYSHARE, expand it, and you'll see all the drives. So I have an R6300 with a 4TB Seagate Hub drive with 2 4TB Seagate backup plus drives hanging off iit and a 4TB Seagate drive attached to the other USB port on the R6300, so I have 16 TB networked. Please not I've done this under Win 7 and Win 10
