    Thanks guys. The router I'm looking at is a BT Hub (its for somebody else). (Its quite a small hub so I guess hot BT Hub 5 or 4).

    BT HH 3 usb detects external storage, sets up it own folders but doesn't delete existing folders, good thing.
    Much better than the O2 Thomson router network storage.

    Using BT HH 3a myself after hacking it to work with any isp.

    BT HH 2 usb could be used as print server.

    No advantage of using usb 3.0, because it's unlikey HH will be usb 3.0.
    Move along, nothing to see.
