USB 3.0 ports on NV+V2

The primary purpose of the USB ports on any NAS is to provide a connection for an external USB drive for backup. However, you can access the contents of a connected drive via the network access. In Windows for example (I know you have Macs, but I don't speak Mac) when you open Windows Explorer or Computer, the NAS units are listed under the Network heading. Clicking on the NAS name will display the shares including usb_hdd_x (where x is a number assigned by the NAS). If you then click on it, you will be asked for your userid and password (admin and NAS password should work) after which you can access the drive contents.

That's what I wanted to hear. So I can add 2 high speed USB3.0 disks to the 4 built-in drives, and thus have the NV+V2 serve 6 volumes...
Yeah!

Secondary uses are as a print server and to access a flash drive.

I already have 4 slow external USB2 drives - which I would connect to the remaining USB port of the NAS for backing up the internal drives.
