Hmm, good point probably ... no, I haven't tried it (, yet).

ATM ct and 2.5" sata disk are connected / supplied together from one
single 5V/ 2.5A PSU. Maybe it's not sufficient (all the time).

I wonder how to accomplish the separate power supply for the disk (I
have no other 5V PSU available / at home).
Would be a more powerful PSU (5V / 4A) replacement sufficient?

Or would you recommend a complete separate PSU for the disk?

Regards, Markus.
