Hello David,
The USB ports are all USB 2.0. So, I am personally not so sure about
using the Pi units for file sharing. The USB ports, possible among other
things, would most likely slow down things too much.

Hello,
I'm thinking of moving my samba setup (used for linux and windows file
sharing among other things), from my router which is a single core 600
MHz box to a Raspberry Pi model 3b+, quad core with a gigabyte of
memory. Currently the router has a drive plugged in to it's USB port
i'd like to move that drive and add another, connecting two stacked
drives to the pi's USB port.
My first question is this workable and will there be any performmance
hits? Are the ports on the 3b+ USB 2.0 or 3.0?
Thanks.
Dave.
