    Connect external HDD to Router vs NAS

    Are there any disadvantages to connecting a 4TB external desktop hdd to my router which can then be accessed throughout the network versus purchasing a NAS? If I were to do this, it would stay connected to the router long term and be used for backups of my laptop.
