It has a USB port and an M2 NVME slot. As someone else noted, USB is usually considered a poor choice due to speed and reliability, so I would suggest nvme.
Nice! I wish it had a USB port for setting up NAS, though.

It doesn’t have a lot of ram so it isn’t great for a NAS. Better to use dedicated hardware
Using this as a NAS would be an odd choice indeed - it’s unequivocally a router.
I’m a bit unfamiliar with NVME, I’ll look into that maybe instead.
Setting up NAS? Anything over USB is going to be slower than LAN, isn’t it (which is still your bottleneck anyway)?
