does it have power protection

It's mostly just a stand. It did not come with its own USB cable so I don't think so.

The only thing I can think of is whether or not your computer is on when you try it. Other than that, I don't believe there is a power switch,(you might look it over as you may have a newer version than the two I have).

It does not have a power switch. It does, however, do a fantastic job of self-powering off when I power down the computer to which it is attached. That is the primary reason I purchase Buffalo's DriveStation drives. I have only used these drives with Macintosh computers.

I would say it does. I put rechargeable batteries in mine when I got it. It always has power when I use it without plugging it in. It's been a year now.

I do not see any indication that it does, it doesn't offer any power once unplugged and I cannot see any other reason for it.

It doesn't have an automatic power on/off for sure. The normal power switch that's in that back doesn't really need to be switched off when not in use, no but if you do turn it off it won't be a problem.

Yes you need a power outlet to plug the unit into for power. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, it has a "power" button, which allows you to leave it plugged in but powered off.

Yes it does. But the power is not that good when it comes into contact. It actually slows down when it comes into contact.

No, it requires a power cord, (enclosed). It's a good product, I use it all the time. Hope this helps!

No, it doesn't. With the computer on, you can assign the "power" button to shut down, restart, or sleep your computer, but it you can't boot it up from a power off state.

Yes it does. There is a small phantom power switch right above the main power switch.

IT Does but its not meant to be user serviable... its a 250 amp fuse. I would use a 200 amp external fuse or circuit breaker as system protection. that will pass 2 KW even at 10 volts DC so the fuse should blow above that level of power.

No, it doesn't but make sure you plug it in the wall not a surge protector.

No, to power it, it came with a USB cord that can connect into a USB port on a computer or USB wall adapter.

I think you are asking if it comes with a power cord and the answer is yes. If you are asking something else I'm not sure what the question is. I hope this helps.

No, it does not. It won't function as a hub without the power source either (at least not to devices that require power, eg, my WiFi card)
