Yes, you have to plug in a microphone to the microphone holder at the top of the stand.

Yes. Plug in a microphone and attach that microphone to the clip on the stand.

Hey Bobbbo: I just plugged a 1 TB drive into the Micro 2. It gets its power from the USB, not external power and it's working fine. So you should be fine doing what you want. btw, I'm very happy with the unit too.

I can't answer that because I've always got it plugged in. I haven't really had the opportunity to test it yet.

I just used another wall charger to charge it that had a micro usb output. It did not come with one.

The unit requires a Micro-B connection. I base this on looking at my unit and cable, and comparing to a Google search of images for "usb micro a vs b".

For my requeriments, it is better that the device must be plugged in. Thanks.

There's a cord that plugs into the micro-pedi. Free info: this is wonderful and fast, you'll love it

Someone else said they need their own power source, this is not true, the micro usb IS powered. Otherwise, my external hard drive would not work with my Nexus 7 when plugged in, but it does with this adapter.

Yes, but I have found you have to plug it in just so if you want it to charge.

My apologies for taking so long to answer your question. I believe you need a MICRO rather than a MINI usb.

You can use any micro USB charger to do it, so there's no need to use the provided charger

No, although the directions in the box say to connect it, you do NOT need to. There is no difference when you plug It in or keep it out.

No, there's only an included adapter for the micro USB port. - The micro port is 2.0, though.

You have to plug and unplug, but I bought a switch that turns it on and off that I plugged it into, otherwise no.

My daughter hooked up her Mini and it worked just fine? Maybe update the Mini?

I never actually stuck it up, mainly because of how disappointed I was by the whole "always needing to be plugged in" feature. It's still in the box for me. Sorry I can't be of more help.

No Judith, it plugs in. That was not really a problem for me though. The power is.
