  • External power for USB3 drive

    Posted by Phil Byrd on November 15, 2012 at 4:02 pm

    When copying from the new USB3 KiPro drive, is the drive powered over the USB connection or is a separate power source required for the drive? If an external PS is needed, is there a recommended source?

    Phillip.

    yes the modules can handle bus power and the modules ship with an external PS.

    Phillip.

    I stand corrected, the Power Supply for the KiStor Drive modules ships as part of the KiPro unit , the PS’s are not included with the KiStor modules themselves.
