Can you connect a hard drive to a router?

I am going to get a wireless router that has a USB connection on it (shown here: http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/it... ). I plan on at least using the USB connection to connect my printer, but would it work to connect my external hard drive? If so, would it be possible to hook a hub to the connection and use both?

Update:

Could someone give me an informed answer instead of just saying yes or no?
