• No because the unit only accepts cat 5 or cat6 plugs and I don’t think your SSD has a cat5 plug on it. The plugs look like phone cable plugs but much bigger

• Hi Sleuth, This device is just an additional port from the router. For that setup, you may need to purchase a router that has the capability to have cloud storage like our Nighthawk routers. If you have any questions, you can also check out our NETGEAR community. Best regards, NETGEAR Amazon
