From: Gavin on 1 Apr 2010 13:03 Some of you likly know this anyway, but thought Id share. I have a 4 port USB hub plugged into my Time Capsule and 2 printers off the back of that. It works fine, so one assumes I could indded plug further devices into it if I wished to,... Plugs in a memory card as well, yup, sees that fine too. -- Gavin.

How does it handle more than one storage device, can you try? Do they show up as alternate shares?
