You should be able to use a USB 2.0 cable to connect your hard drive to your computer. USB 3.0 is compatible with 2.0. You'll just get 2.0 speeds.

You can also get flash drives with a micro usb port interface. I have one and it works perfectly with this unit.

yes; but USB connection is slower than regular hard drive. However, if you use eSATA connection, it's speed is just like your internal drive.

Yes you can if it connects by USB. You can also connect over a network if the drive is shared and skip the wires.

Yep, you can use the USB connector and treat it like any other external hard drive.

The end that plugs into the hard drive is mini USB. Do not use third party USB cables with this hard drive, the mini USB plug on those adapters is too loose.

Yes, you simply take the internal SATA hard drive and seat it into this device. Then connect this device to your PC using the provided USB cable. Assuming your PC is Windows XP or later, it should automatically detect this internal hard drive as an additional drive and you can use it just like you would an external hard drive.

You can use a Sabrent USB 2.0 to SATA hard drive adapter to connect it or similar.

I don't think you can use any USB cable, you need to get a clickfree transformer cable, and this cable can be used with any external hard drive to back up automatically.

This will work fine just like any other external USB drive. If you don't want it formatted as NTFS, it can be easily formatted as FAT32 or whatever your need is.

Nope. You need to use the included power supply. The USB port simply does not deliver enough power to operate 3.5" based external hard drives. Thumb drives use flash memory and the portable hard drives use smaller 2.5" or 1.8" laptop hard drives which use less power.

No it won't work with a USB hard drive I tried it and it didn't work I think the external hard drive requires more power than the tablet can provide

I don't use it for connect hard drive, but the voltage and ampers maybe working with it,, so there are another solution for connect hardrive. for example SATA/PATA/IDE Drive to USB Adapter Converter

It's a little bit fatter than the smaller USB drives. If the USB ports are side by side, you should have no problem. If the USB ports are one above the other, you might need a connecting cable for this drive.

Yes, you can plug in one (or more, with a hub) USB external drive and share those drives over the network just like the docked drive. Note that each hard disk will be a separate share.

Yes you can. Any attached USB device shows up as a folder named according to the name of the thumb drive or external HDD you plug in. You can simply double click to open and do whatever you desire to. Thanks.
