Share the drives on a PC and map them as network drives.
Or you can buy a router with USB ports so they can be network shared.
I have seen a small lan box that you can use for downloading torrents and has a dual usb ports that it can share over the network.

Around the $60 mark, if you are serious I will call our suppliers and check on the prices for them.
