Is there a potential issue with interference if my Google Wi-Fi point is set on top of an external hard drive?

Hello @EL_CONDUCTOR 

I don't think that will be a problem. But, I probably wouldn't do it just from a thermal standpoint (the external hard drive will need enough exposed surface area to stay cool).

Hi, everyone.
Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.
Thanks.

Hi, everyone.
As we haven't had any activity here recently I'm going to go ahead and close the thread. If you have more to add, feel free to start a new discussion.
Thanks
