Never thought to connect all of the storage devices to the hub before connecting the hub to the tablet.. this step saved alot of time for me thanks

I'm so annoyed right now that I'm just finding you and that I could have been accessing my USB for the last few years 😑 on my Samsung Tab A7. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the information.

You are a Saint. My life has just become easier. Thank you.

And I am talking about the rugged rubbery plastic cases that have the thick bulging backs on them that allow for integrated customization for what can be included in it such as a built in battery bank!!

[CyberMasterMark]

My thoughts would be if they put extra USB c ports on a tablet to allow for something like this to be useful!!

[PyroPolo]

You didn't mention that it needs to be formatted for Android or you can't open it.

[CyberMasterMark]

Or a custom case adapter that has the extra ports on it!!

[Pranam_Dadaji]

Hey could you please tell me whether Galaxy Tab S7 FE support external hard drive or not?

[jshlyrad]

Can you use any phone or tablet for this as long as you have adapter?

[mrmaker]

Can you connect it to power at the same time its connected to a hard drive?

[LiviuDragon]

My 2tb Crucial x8 keeps crashing my Samsung Tab S6, any ideas why? And how to resolve this issue, thanks. Works flawlessly on PC its just a tablet thing.

Hi.. just want to clarify.. as I am getting conflicting info.. will the little adapter power my WD My passport Ultra with a usb3 connection? It apparently requires 900mA and as I’m not tech savvy have no idea what that means. I’m hoping your recommended device works. Many thanks. Linda.

[themastersvoice]

Thank you sir, But please tell me if I can connect HDD Hard drive als ? You connected SSD.I ask because HDD and is mechanical with moving parts, and needs more power !
