I have an IOGEAR 500gb usb that contains all my music, video, pictures, everything. I want to share them on the network but don't want the computer that it is currently plugged into to be on all the time. With that said, if the main computer in the house isn't on, the files are not accessible.

Is there a certain type of wireless router or something that I can add to my network to have this accessible all the time? Something like a wireless router with a USB input or something?

Might be a dumb but valid question....
 
Also connects hard drive or flash-based USB storage devices directly to your network to share music, video, or data files

Linksys WRT350N

Here's one, there's a few others on newegg that I saw. I actually just was browsing gigabit routers and I came across a few that pictured USB ports on them, I wondered WTF it was for but now I know.
