I bought a 3rd party drive adaptor without a network port and had to load my games on my PC using a network enclosure.
It was still a pain. Its all soooooo slow and buggy.
Having tried both a USB3 drive adapter and downloading over Ethernet, I'll say that Ethernet was way slower for me.
The average copy time on the adapter was about 30 minutes, but over Ethernet it took 3-4 times as long.
