Dell.com (1) Shipping. 12 port patch panel wink hub surge backpack usb microphone. ![]() Listen . The error message says Power surge , Hub exceeded power limits. So our USB HDD needs more power or say current. Right now we are giving it current from only one source - - 1 USB port ( output current = 5. A ) max. Its input current rating is 1. A but somehow I dont know why 5. A is insufficient for it. So we need more current. Why not give it current from 2 USB ports instead of just one ? It has 2 USB plugs at one end and a single one at the other end. I plugged in those two plugs in two USB ports of my laptop and the single usb plug in my ext hdd and Carambaa !! It worked like a loco. There were no ERROR messages since then. Now i can access my HDD without any problem. The error notification stopped becoz now the HDD is getting the power it requires. You guys can try this until Microsoft comes up with something new in their OSes. If you need a picture of the USB cable i m using then send an email to me at sam. See ya later. Sameer Potdar.
