TP-Link's Archer C7 router, a popular budget pick for reliable Wi-Fi, has two USB-A 2.0 ports on the back that, when used with an external hard drive, allow for local sharing. If you don't have an extra drive lying around to handle this job, we've put together a list of the best USB hard drives out there right now.

With storage up to 4TB and a USB-A 3.0 connection (compatible with USB-A 2.0), the My Passport is a great pick for the Archer C7. It's available in eight different colors, it doesn't require an external source of power, and it has a great rating on Amazon with thousands of reviews.
