A USB port on the router would be nice. I have a TRENDnet multi-Port print server that I'm using for printing. It comes with two USB 2.0 ports and one parallel printer port, so I have my needs for printer connections already meet. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833156035&cm_re=TRENDnet_Print_Server-_-33-156-035-_-Product So far as connecting a large drive to a router's print port, that would be a nice feature for backing up all my computers. I hate to invest in USB 2.0 right now, though, as USB 3.0 is just emerging. I was looking at a Western Digitial 2TB drive recently with USB 3.0. Thanks for the info.
