Can You Use Multiple External Hard Drives & Your Wireless Mouse On It

I can use multiple USB2 FLASH drives and my wireless mouse, but I can't use a 64GB USB3 flash drive.

I have had trouble plugging in a normal Apple USB and my hard drive USB took some major pushing to squeeze in. I don't use this product anymore as I found the quality and fit to be poor.

I do not know the proper answer, but I presume the answer involves factors of power load and data throughput. Peripheral USB devices that have their own power source should result in more devices being workable. Likewise, more devices of low power draw can be supported than those that require higher power from the host device. As for data bandwidth, it stands to reason that more devices will have to share the maximum data transfer of the host device port. Even though I can't provide a definite answer, perhaps this will help identify issues to research further.

No. It is *not a powered hub* and for the record, this is not just a "hub" in the normal sense. This is to switch up to 4 USB devices between 2 computers. I use it for a mouse, keyboard, and microphone and for those devices it works fine. This includes a Razer mouse that does not fully work with at least some other KVM solutions.

Yes, I have A USB hub that I used with a mouse, keyboard, and flash drive all at the same time.

I have not personally tried, but I have hooked external drives and thumb drives with no issues. Both were WiFi cabable and the drive was of a usb3.0 variety.

Yes you can, once you have wirelessly connected your computer to the Verbatim MediaShare. However, this begs the question why you would want to do this as you'd be restricted to wireless and USB2 speeds, whereas direct connection of the hard drive to the computer would potentially give you USB3 speeds. Of course, if you wanted to share the device across multiple computers it could be used as a wireless network-attached storage (NAS) system.

yes u can. either Bluetooth or the regular wireless ones. I'd recommend a Bluetooth mouse. it frees up ur usb ports

yes, this is how I am using it too. I have two wired computers on the WD switch which then connects to a wired port on the wireless router. All work fine.

No, you can use the external hard drive, it only support internal hard drive, sorry for that.

Yes, but you may need to replace the hard drive cable to accommodate two drives.

Yes, if your external drive has a female slot you can use the one with the male USB-A end.

I have 4 externals hooked up - 1 Tb hard drive, mouse, postage printer, and postage scale. I have noticed no problems moving data to the external HDD nor any other problems.

Yes you can. Connect the wireless mouse receiver to one of the USB ports on the right side of the computer, and it will sync with your wireless mouse. My wife is using her's right now.

yes, you can actually have multiple USB keyboards and mice hooked up to the same computer and use them interchangeably.

I've had mine for quite a while with various wireless mice and keyboards without a problem. I do not have the USB-dongle for my mouse and keyboard plugged into the USB ports in the monitor, however.

Yes you can. There is a USB port. I use mine with a wireless mouse that plugs into the USB port and have used a wired USB mouse as well.

You can link two hard drives together via a "KVM" switch. That way, you have the best of both worlds... two computers! The KVM switch allows you to switch back and forth to each computer. The switch also accommodates your mouse/keyboard and wireless Internet.

This box holds 4 drives, you can add an additional drive housing that can handle 4-10 more drives via eSATA. This unit supports 4Tb drives in Windows (I'm using WHS which is based on Server 2003). I have it wired to my router, but there are slots so you could theoretically add a wireless network card (wouldn't recommend a USB one due to speed). I'm using WHS with Stablebit DrivePool to make the drives all appear as a single pool, but you should keep in mind that Microsoft has EOL'd WHS 2011.
