Can I plug this device into my NAS hard drive and connect ethernet cable to my router that supports NAS over ethernet? null

Question

Accepted Answer

If your external hard drive is NAS (network-attached storage), you would not need an Ethernet adapter. If external your hard drive has only a USB-C port, you might not be able to use the network adapter unless the drive software happens to include a network driver AND can either power the network adapter or accept power from it. I doubt the USB port on any external drive can supply power. You would need to supply power to the adapter through its charger port.

Your NAS hard drive must have a USB-C port for this to connect.

Hi! This adapter is not tested to work with your desired setup and is only designed to work with USB-C devices.
