Connecting Harddrive to Wiim Pro via USB

[BlueMerlin]

I was going to buy the Wiim Pro but I am confused about how to connect a hard drive to the USB port. Based on my research you can plug an external hard drive into the USB port on the Wiim Pro and it will index the music files. But when I look at images of the back of the unit there’s no USB port. The only one I can see is a USB Type C which is labeled as the power supply socket.

How would I connect a HD to the Wiim Pro if the only USB port is for the power supply? Any insights or advice would be very much appreciated.

Hi,

Unfortunately, the USB on the Pro is for power. The following four models have USB ports for media input and audio output.

WiiM Ultra
WiiM amp Ultra
WiiM amp pro
WiiM amp
