There is USB support available on Amiga since a long time.

On "Classic" Amigas AmigaOS 3.x with Poseidon USB stack + some USB card.

On AmigaOS 4.x built-in. AmigaOS 4.x hardware like Sam boards from Acube
Systems have USB controllers that work out of the bux.

And I am pretty sure, you can also tell it to use Amiga Fast Filesystem
(on Linux affs) on an USB stick. Also you can plug in an external
harddisk with RDB partitions and whatever filesystems you wish.
