I've had a freecom for a few years, ultra reliable, few software bugs when used with ethernet port, but works 100% on USB (it is a mains powered one).
I'd be tempted to buy a drive and caddy separately now, can't really explain why, just a gut feeling.

Just bear in mind if they are plugged into a hub you'll be destroying transfer speeds on them. Which means you may not be able to stream some stuff (movies for example) without noticable lag.
