Hi!

does anyone connected a USB HDD 2.5" and use it ?

I'm not sure if the tvboxes have the engount power to work flawless with it

My 905x have a 5v 2.0A but I don't know how much power requiere the box and how many it is available for the USB

Thanks

I connect Hdd 2.5 enclosure to my andriod box and that’s why I purchased adaptor 5v 4.0A and works like a charm. I connect two external hdd at a time, one is external western digital passport 500gb and second is sea gaye 500gb (sata enclosure).

Mostly, Hdd closure is required external power supply adaptor but portabl external hdd does not required extra power supply and easily connects to andriod tv box.
