Article seems... rather... moot.

It doesn't say how much power draw the thing needs or anything.

Verbatim's north american site doesn't mention it, and the european site
doesn't list power draw specs.

I wonder if any / all high capacity USB flash drives have a larger power
draw ? Or does this thing have regular power draw and someone tried to use
it with an unpowered hub that already had 2 other devices connected to it ?
or or or or ?

Sigh.
