This is not Network Attached Storage. It is some kind of Cloud hybrid that can be used to share files over the internet. It is not suitable for Plex, unless you use the built in Plex application, meaning you can't attach this and other storage and share your media through a single Plex server.

If you have a previous MyCloud NAS Appliance this is nothing like the original. It is a sharing device and requires software on each PC to do backups. The USB is only for importing files and can't be use as a connection to an additional Hard Drive for extra storage.
