Usb Drive Requirements - NETGEAR Wireless-N User Manual

USB Drive Requirements

The modem router works with 1.0 and 1.1 (USB Full Speed) and 2.0 (USB High Speed) standards.
The approximate USB bus speeds are shown below.
Bus Speed/Second
USB 1.1 12 Mbits
USB 2.0 480 Mbits
Actual bus speeds can vary, depending on the CPU speed, memory, speed of the network, and
other variables.
The modem router should work with USB 2.0 or 1.1-compliant external flash and hard drives. For

When selecting a USB device, bear in mind the following:
• The USB port on the modem router can be used with one USB hard drive at a time. Do not
attempt to use a USB hub attached to the USB port.
• Per the USB 2.0 specification, the maximum available power is 5V @ 0.5A. Some USB
devices may exceed this requirement, in which case the device may not function or may
function erratically. Check the documentation for your USB device to be sure.
• The modem router supports FAT, FAT32, NTFS (read only) and Linux file systems.
• If your USB HD devices have an external power supply, be sure to use it.
