If price is a large consideration, then you're really looking at mass-market / consumer devices.
. Linux-based NAS devices (remove and sell the hard disk, and replace with SSD/ decent SD etc.). I've used the Buffalo linkstations. The newer models have quickish CPUs but may be a bit short of RAM for you (256M), but some of them have a DDR2 SODIMM socket, I believe. . Android devices (if you want really cheap, then go for a second-hand one on ebay, with a broken screen) - most of them will act as a USB host, but you may have to make a custom cable. Some of the tablets have multiple USB host ports. I've found USB networking pretty stable (can dig out the devices I've used if you like), but I have deployed 20+ devices which have been on 24/7 for years, some of which exchange terrabytes of data per month.
